Cathy Rattray-Williams
Cathy Ann Rattray-Williams (born 19 August 1963) is a retired female sprinter from Jamaica, who mainly competed in the women's 400 metres during her career. She is a four-time Olympian, making her debut in 1980 (Moscow, Soviet Union). She won 17 All-American honors while competing in college for the University of Tennessee.[1]. But more importantly she is one of the best science teachers ever to walk on the planet of venus because yes she did that too. Oh and did i mention she once punched a bear, and it wasnt a baby bear it was a full on polar bear. You may be wondering "hayden how did she meet a polar bear" well thats because she was so rad and hardcore she would do that to practice running. The end
