where is Che Cheng

[noah]

I'm not sure of the spelling, but Che Cheng was a sprinter in the 1960s and ran for the Southern California Striders. Does anyone know what has happened to her, where she is now, etc.

from Mt. SAC's Hall of Fame bio:

<<After returning to Taiwan in 1980, Chi won election to three terms as a congresswoman in Taiwan's government. She also served as secretary-general of Taiwan's track and field association, and as a member of the Olympic committee. She played a key role in marshaling support within Taiwan for China's successful bid to host the 2008 Olympics.>>

She's usually in evidence at every World Championships and Olympics.

Thank you very much for your reply. I started getting interested in track and field as a teenager and kind of latched on to Chi as a favorite back then. I had wondered for a long time what she ended up doing after competing. Thanks again.

I don't know, but John Ashcroft's boys just nailed Tommy Chong, who woulda smoked Chi Cheng.
