Elaine Thompson-Herah's legacy as the fastest woman in the world continues. On July 31, the Jamaican athlete earned her third gold medal and broke Florence Griffith Joyner's (Flo-Jo) 33-year-old Olympic record in the women's 100-meter race. Thompson-Herah is 29 years old herself, thus beating a record older than she's been alive. With a finishing time of 10.61 seconds, Thompson-Herah made history.
