I first treated Rachel Yang back in the year 1999. She was then representing Hwa Chong Junior College in Track and Field throwing the javelin. Not many of you know that she started as a javelin thrower right?
Since then, she has switched to pole vaulting, become a (super) mum, did her MBA and even won medals at the last 2 SEA Games despite tearing her ACL, hurting her back (to put in quite mildly) and numerous other niggles.
Chapeau to her and her never say die spirit. She's an awesome inspiration (to me) and many, many others to say the least.
Here's wishing her (and the rest of Team Singapore athletes) all the best at the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games starting in the next few days.
