Sha’Carri Richardson celebrates first win against Jamaican track star Elaine Thompson-Herah

U.S track athlete, Sha’Carri Richardson made her return to the track and came out victorious.

On Tuesday August 30, Richardson won the 100M race winning in 11.29 seconds in Lucerne, Switzerland, with Elaine Sandra-Lee Thompson-Herah coming in at 11:30 seconds.

According to Lets Run, circumstances seemed to work against the runners with a -2.0m/s headwind and damp conditions. Nevertheless, the runner defeated Olympic champ Elaine Thompson-Herah by .01 seconds with her latest victory. The two women went at each other during the entire race, with Richardson easing out the Olympian in the end.

Sha’Carri’s latest victory is the first time she’s beat Jamaica’s Thompson-Herah in three attempts.
