Is Wilma still the fastest women that ever lived?
is she still the fastest lady alive?
no she isn't the fastest lady but she was at the time. she would win mostly of her track meet.It’s a good bet you’ll never run as fast as the woman in this story. She was known as the fastest woman runner in the world.
She was very proud of her career, proud of what she had accomplished and proud of what she had done for the African American. She is already down in history as a great, great athlete and I don’t think there are many around that have accomplished what she has accomplished. This community is very proud of her.
