'A mother who dominated the Olympic stage appeared at her son's school sports day. Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce (40, Jamaica) displayed an overwhelming "full-speed sprint" against other parents.

'The UK "The Sun" reported on the 21st (Korea time) that "Olympic track hero Fraser left other mothers far behind and took first place in the parents' race at her son's school sports day."

'A video of the race held last April clearly showed the huge speed difference between a professional athlete and an ordinary person, sparking major online buzz that continues to this day.

'Fans were amazed by her appearance as she easily passed other parents from the starting line and crossed the finish line with ease.

'Fraser had no intention of holding back against other runners from the start. She shared the behind-the-scenes story in an interview with the UK "Telegraph."

'Fraser recalled the situation at the time, saying, "When I arrived at school around lunchtime, I had no intention of participating in the race, but my 8-year-old son Zayon and his friends ran up to me and begged, 'We need points for the team, please run.' I eventually agreed to participate and started warming up. Other mothers, I heard, even trained specifically for this race."

'She then cheerfully added, "I never ran half-heartedly. It was important to show my true self." She said, "After telling the other participants, 'Kids, I don't jog,' I ran at 100% power just as I always do."

'Fraser is considered one of the greatest track sprinters of all time. She holds a record of 10.60 seconds, which ranks third all-time in women's 100m. From the 2008 Beijing Olympics to the 2012 London Olympics, she won two consecutive 100m titles, and at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, she won a gold medal in the 400m relay, collecting a total of eight Olympic medals (3 gold, 4 silver, 1 bronze). At the World Athletics Championships, she swept an impressive 16 medals (10 gold, 5 silver, 1 bronze).

'Fraser retired from professional athletics after winning a silver medal in the 400m relay at the 2025 World Athletics Championships in Tokyo.
