Annarita Sidoti (25 July 1969 – 21 May 2015) was an Italian race walker.
Annarita Sidoti was born in Gioiosa Marea. She won eleven medals at senior level in international competition. She participated at three editions of the Summer Olympics (1992, 1996, 2000), and earned 47 caps in fifteen years in the national team from 1987 to 2002.
She appeared in the film Le complici (1998) by director Emanuela Piovano, in which she played a prostitute.
She died in May 2015 in Gioiosa Marea, Italy, of metastatic breast cancer, which had spread to her liver and brain. She was 45 years old.
She won ten times at the Italian Athletics Championships.
nb Sources give her age at death as 44, but this is contradicted by widespread record of her year of birth as 1969 throughout the entirely of her career (by international and national athletics federations and Olympic scholars) and before publication of her death.
