SHELLY-ANN Fraser Pryce’s majestic National Record of 10.70 seconds, set while winning the 100m title at the JAAA/Supreme Ventures National senior championships at the National Stadium on Friday night, has vaulted her further up into the pantheons of the best ever to have run the event.

In lowering her personal best from the previous 10.73 seconds, the pint-sized rocket vaulted France’s Christine Aaron, into fourth place behind three Americans.

The late Florence Griffith Joyner (Flo Jo) leads the pack with her World Record 10.49 seconds followed by Carmelita Jeter’s 10.64 seconds and Marion Jones’ 10.65 seconds set at altitude in Johannesburg, South Africa in 1998.

The usually bubbly Fraser-Pryce was overjoyed after her race, praising coach Stephen Francis, who she said had “drilled” her this season as he knew her potential and was able to bring it out.

“I came out contended and happy tonight and to have the National Record there is nothing else I could ask for, this is the first hurdle and I crossed it and just looking forward to the Olympics and to defend my title,”she said.
