Flo-Jo
Fastest woman ever
Flo-Jo is the nickname of Florence Griffith Joyner (1959–1998), American sprinter who set world records in the 100 and 200 meters at the 1988 Olympics—records that still stand.
Known for her flamboyant style, long painted nails, and one-legged running suits, she remains the fastest woman ever timed: She ran like Flo-Jo out there.
