Penny Heyns is a double Olympic champion and the holder of two world records.
However, it was not an easy road to success for her. It took a lot of hard work!
Penny was born in Amanzimtoti which is on the South Coast of Natal. She has two younger brothers, Etienne and Stefan.
She was a member of the S.A. schools’ team.
Penny’s strongest motivation lies in the fact that she is a committed Christian. No matter where she travels, she finds that she is quite lonely. She is very determined and is able to persevere in difficult conditions.
When she loses, she sees it as a challenge to do better next time.
She is living in Canada at present, but she tries to visit her family in South Africa regularly.
She has a good sense of humour.
Her best advice to young people is:
You must know that God created you as a unique human being, with your own talents and abilities. You must use and develop them.

Monique studied drama and later had her own communication company in Malawi. Now she presents a programme on MNet.
