Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce — what an incredible woman you are. Thank you for inspiring me, and countless others, for so many years. I went from being the little girl watching your races on YouTube to standing on the line right next to you — a dream turned reality. Your presence has graced the track community with excellence, grace, and longevity, leaving a mark that can never be erased.
A special thank you for taking the time to pull me aside after the award ceremony. It might have seemed like a small gesture, but to me, it meant the world. Your words will stay with me, and I will carry them forward on my own journey. 💚
