How does one explain Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce? I have had interviews with Jamaican pocket rocket, and learned something new each time. Rumors of her demise as a global sprint champion have been passed on, yet, she gets back in the blocks and takes on the best. This season has been fun to watch. At the Pre Classic, SAFP told us how much she loved being in shape again. Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce has run 10.74 this season. She has had more ups than downs in 2019. It is still a month away from the World Championships.
