Pereira’s lightning-fast time of 11.26 seconds 58th International Pentecost Sport Meeting in Germany, now stands as the fastest 100m ever recorded by a Southeast Asian woman, a testament to her unwavering dedication and hard work. She also holds the 100m national record (11.20s), 200m Southeast Asian Games record (22.69s), and 200m Asian Athletics Championships record (22.70s).
These groundbreaking achievements mark the sixth time this year that Pereira has rewritten the Singaporean 100m Women’s National Record.
This latest feat adds to Pereira’s growing list of accolades, further solidifying her status as a sprinting icon.
In fact, she has been on an extraordinary record-breaking spree, setting a total of nine National Records in 2023 alone, including her remarkable performances in the 200m events.
Her extraordinary talent was on full display at the recently concluded 32nd SEA Games in Cambodia, where she clinched gold in both the 100m and 200m races.
