Sharon Paola Fajardo Sierra (born November 7, 1989 in Puerto Cortés) is a Honduran swimmer, who specialized in sprint freestyle events.[1] She represented her nation Honduras at the 2008 Summer Olympics, and has owned a Honduran record each in both 50 and 100 m freestyle, which were eventually set by Julimar Avila in 2013.[2]
Fajardo received a Universality invitation from FINA to compete as Honduras' lone female swimmer in the women's 50 m freestyle at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing.[2] Swimming as the fastest entrant in heat five, Fajardo pulled away with a magnificent effort from a scorching field to hit the wall first in a Honduran record and a lifetime best of 27.19. Fajardo failed to advance to the semifinals, as she placed fifty-first overall out of ninety-two swimmers in the prelims.[3]
