it's my first name.
and no i'm not related to her.
we do have the 'FBK-stadium' in my town though, named after her. it hosts one of the biggest athletics-events in the world, every year. saw Haile Gebreselassi run a WR on the double mile there some years ago (i always get free tickets for this event).
anyway, she was an ace koen. 4 times gold at the olympics in London. a bike as reward. she will be remembered.
