Murielle Ahoure is pictured above taking the silver medal in the women's 100
metres final at the 2013 World Champinships in Moscow.
In 2016 Murielle broke the African 100m record when running a time
of 10.78 in Montverde, Florida, shaving the previous best of 10.79 set
by Nigeria's Blessing Okagbare in 2013.
Murielle just beat Blessing in the 200m in Moscow.
Murielle Ahoure failed to reach the finals at the 2015 World Championships
or the 2016 Rio Olympics.
