Personal
When she was young, Dawes was very interested in athletics. At the age of 10, she was in a car accident. She survived, but became a paraplegic.[2] Christie continued in her career in athletics, but also took up the job of a primary school teacher.[3] She is married to her coach Andrew Dawes and their son was born in 2011.[1]

In 1996, Dawes competed in the Atlanta Paralympics,[4] where she was awarded the 1996 Young Paralympian of the Year Award.[1]
Three years later, she won a bronze medal for the 10 km Peachtree Road Race. In 2000, she competed in the Sydney Paralympics.[4]

She competed in the 2006 Melbourne Commonwealth Games, coming fifth in the Women's 800 m EAD T54 event.[7]
Dawes competed in the 2008 Summer Paralympics in Beijing, and was one of several competitors caught up in a crash during the final of the women's 5000 m T54 wheelchair event, eventually finishing sixth despite a broken front wheel.[8] The race was re-run, and Dawes spoke out against the treatment of Canadian athlete Diane Roy, who had been awarded the gold medal in the event, only to have it taken back and replaced with a silver medal when she finished second in the re-run.[9] Dawes won a silver medal at the Women's 4x100 m T53/54 event at the Beijing games.[5]
A few months after the games, she came third in the New York City Marathon.[1] In January 2009, she won the Oz Day 10K Wheelchair Road Race.[10] In February 2010, Dawes won the 10 km world wheelchair road race championships in the United Arab Emirates.[11]

She won a bronze medal in the T54 5000 m [5] and finished sixth in the T54 marathon.[12] At the 2014 Glasgow Commonwealth Games, she came fourth in the 1500 m T54.[13]
At the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Paralympics, she competed in four events and medalled in one.
