Five-time 100m world champion Sha’Carri Richardson has made the decision to part way with her coach

Sha’Carri Richardson’s training partner is ready for a joyful celebration and triumph parade.

The Olympic 100m bronze medalist will be celebrated in a grand homecoming parade and fun-filled community event.

Olympic 100m bronze medalist Melissa Jefferson will return to her hometown of Georgetown, Washington DC, on October 12 for a grand homecoming celebration .

The event, which promises to be a day of festivities and pride, will feature a parade and a community-wide celebration, bringing together friends, family and fans from across the country to celebrate the star athlete.

Jefferson, who captured the world’s attention by clinching a bronze medal in the 100-meter dash at the recent Olympic Games, has since continued to shine on the global stage.

Her most significant achievement came when she secured a gold medal as part of the U.S. 4×100 meter relay team.

This gold, her first Olympic win, came on the heels of her personal triumph in the individual 100-meter dash, where she finished third behind Sha’Carri Richardson, who took silver, and Julien Alfred of Saint Lucia, who claimed gold.

“We are officially one week away from Melissa Jefferson Day ! I cannot wait to see each and every one of you!” Jefferson shared in a heartfelt social media post

“Prior to the big day, I would like to express my gratitude to all those who contributed to the success of this event, especially my parents, Melvin and Johanna Jefferson ❤️❤️. It is really humble to know that people are coming from all over, and I want you to know how much I value each and every one of you.”
