Frank Washington Jarvis (31. srpna 1878 California, Pensylvánie2. června 1933 Sewickley, Pensylvánie) byl americký atlet, sprinter, olympijský vítěz v běhu na 100 metrů z roku 1900.

Sportovní kariéra

Na olympiádě v Paříži v roce 1900 patřil k favoritům běhu na 100 metrů, když přijel na start jako mistr USA. Týden před olympiádou však prohrál v Londýně s jiným Američanem Arthurem Duffeyem. V rozběhu Jarvis i další Američan John Tewksbury vyrovnali světový rekord na 100 metrů časem 10,8. Finále bylo dlouho vyrovnané, Duffey si těsně před cílem natáhl sval a nedokončil závod. Jarvis zvítězil časem 11,0. Na stejné olympiádě startoval v trojskoku i trojskoku z místa, ale bez úspěchu.

Flag of Jamaica.svg
Flag of Jamaica. “The sunshine, the land is green, and the people are strong and bold” is the symbolism of the colours of the flag. GOLD represents the natural wealth and beauty of sunlight; GREEN represents hope and agricultural resources; BLACK represents the strength and creativity of the people. The original symbolism, however, was "Hardships there are, but the land is green, and the sun shineth", where BLACK represented the hardships being faced.
