Track and field star Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce is no stranger to a race and she couldn't resist joining in on the fun at her 5-year-old son Zyon's recent school sports day event.
The 36-year-old shared the memory on her Facebook page April 3, joking that she felt she had "been waiting all my life for this moment."
"I initially had no intention of running in the parent race -- even my coach advised me not to run but my teammates weren't doing so hot," the eight-time Olympic medalist explained, referring to Zyon and her husband Jason Pryce.

A video from Amelia Gordon captured Fraser-Pryce doing what she does best, and to no one's surprise, the decorated runner -- who won a silver medal for Jamaica at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics in the women's 100-meter competition -- flew down the grassy track leaving everyone else in the dust.
