Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce is a 2-time Olympic and a 4-time World Championships winner at 100 meters event. 

She is also the only woman to win a World Championships title after becoming a mother. 

And, wait, the oldest at that.

Anything I write beyond this will pale in comparison, but let me try.

 A decade after her maiden World Championships title, Shelly-Ann did it for the fourth time.

Unlike her previous appearances, though, the victory wasn’t really anticipated this time. She was coming after a break that she took while pregnant and was competing with the best around the world.

However, in her typical style, she did what had never been done before.

She clocked 10.71 seconds – which was exactly the same time she took to clinch her second title at the tournament. 

What stood out, though, were the pictures of Shelly-Ann holding her kid after the victory. “This is a victory for motherhood,” she told AP.

And in another interview given to CNN, she said:

My secret is just staying humble and just know who you are as a person and athlete and just continue to work hard. It’s a wonderful feeling having my son witnessing this.

Her 2-year-old son Zyon even joined her on the field, making it one of the most historic images of our times.

There are so many things I would love to say but simply put no one, absolutely no one gets to write your story but you! It’s done over time, at your own pace and sometimes with disappointments but it’s the ending that matters. We are all created equals but we are unique, with our own talents and abilities and we are meant to shine differently but we are the same. We are as people special women and men who are built to overcome and built for greatness, if we persevere. Two years ago giving birth to Zyon changed me. Two years ago I lost a loved one and two years ago I was broken. But yet I RISE… I am so grateful for the outpouring of love from my friends, family, fellow athletes, supporters and sponsors over the years. Your belief and encouragement gave me strength. But I am even more grateful for those girls who will come after me or the women who are still holding their own and working on their greatness in their own way and never trying to be anyone but themselves! I am humbled to be filling my shoes with my potential, fill yours and never stop for anyone and do it with all your heart and all your courage, and do it well🙏.

Who says motherhood slows you down? 10.71 seconds is as fast it gets.
