Geocache Description:


Welcome to the Flo-Jo statue in Mission Viejo.

Florence Griffith Joyner holds the world records for women's 100m and 200m sprints, which have stood for nearly 40 years:

  • 100m dash: 10.49 seconds, set in 1988 at the U.S. Olympic Trials
  • 200m dash: 21.34 seconds, set in 1988 in the Women's Olympic Final in Seoul, Korea

This cache is a bonus for the Flo-Jo Adventure Lab. The final coordinates can be obtained by completing one of the steps in the adventure lab.

The cache is within walking distance, and you can reach ground zero in less than 30 seconds—or less than 10.49 seconds if you wish to sprint!

This cache is part of the official “Discover Mission Viejo GeoTour GT4D8” which will lead visitors to discover trails, parks, and other prominent locations throughout Mission Viejo.  Those who complete the tour will be eligible to receive a GeoCoin for their achievement by completing the GeoTour passport and finding code words.  Passports and instructions can be found here: Geocaching | City of Mission Viejo
