Did You Know

If Annabelle Fasuba’s speed shocked you, it really shouldn’t. Did you know, her father, Olusoji Fasuba, is a Nigerian sprint legend who broke the U15 European 100m record and still holds the Nigerian national record at 9.85s? Yes. And her grand-uncle? None other than Don Quarrie, who was the 1976 Olympic 200m champion. That's the man Usain Bolt himself admitted he grew up idolizing. So speed runs in the family, and Annabelle’s already keeping up with it!
