That's pretty cool if that's true. Seems like you're being straightforward. I'll be honest; When I was 12 years old, I was running low 13's and my track coach told me that I was extremely fast. This kid would've embarrassed me. Good for him, I hope he does well!
Some of the comments you guys are putting on here about a kid is straight sickening. You grown under achieving, pathetic individuals get satisfaction by sitting behind a keyboard and undermining an achievement by a kid and will shut your device down, smile and feel good about yourself. No wonder our kids feel under appreciated and devalued. Good Job, the gold medal goes to you. Continue to be great.
Lol what school did you go to and in what state. I know here in Texas an 11.6 is pretty normal for 8th/9th graders. So this time is impressive for a 12 year old but it’s not spectacular.
In this age group using blocks is a detriment. Too many things to think about as you prepare to run and blocks just aren't ingrained enough in their muscle memory for them to be effective. Heck, look how badly some of the best runners in the world are coming out of blocks and they practice it every day.
He’s built like a full grown man. It’s very impressive but like most extreme early matures he likely will see less improvement from here. But still very impressive.
@@leongxchx904 Settle down Leon. He wasn’t hating. As you go through this world you see commonly that athletes who are strongly built when they are young normally aren’t very tall when they are older. Coaches look for the kids who aren’t quite as fast but have height.
@@alienjack6375 that type of speed it does. National record. Remember no one ever at that age has run that fast before. He is going to be fast his whole life.
John Wolfe Ye I know but I just mean that a lot of kids don’t grow and won’t really shine until they’re atleast 17. Obviously these kids will be fast, but the stars of the future, I’m not really sure
This is so not true. This 12-year-old is already hitting his peak stages. Regardless of whether he hits puberty or not, he won't get much faster than the pace he is at now. There are many runners such as Jack Boulton who are U17s in Australia and are running 47 flat for the 400 but never get any faster. A coach from The Gambia that trained athletes at the Commonwealth Games in 2000 ran 11.1 but only ever improved his time to 10.5. I am now being coached by him and this was over a 10 year period that his time improved. Regardless of whether one hits puberty, the earlier age you start sprint training, the more the likelihood of peaking at a younger age instead of the prime age of around 22 or 23 (everyone is different). Yes there are the occasional cases of young runners becoming amazing athletes when they start from a young age, but it is scientifically proven that the human body only has a good 7 years of training in it. Usain Bolt started sprinting at age 14 but was already physically developed, by 20 years of age he had become a world champion. These are the facts. This kid won't get much faster.
He had already hit puberty and that’s a big part of why he ran that time. Early matures usually don’t continue to improve at the rate of the truly great runners
That happened to my friend in HS he was in crutches for a long time. He told me he arrived late for his race and didn’t have time to warm up. You probably didn’t warm up enough. Sometimes when I run knowing I didn’t warm up enough I feel tight and injury prone so I go back to warming up.
@@MiniNinja258 yep that’s exactly what happened. Forgot to warm up...messed up the whole flow. I’ve definitely learned from that injury though. Now I don’t even try to sprint without warming up first

Looking at it realistically, that kid is way further along in the puberty scale than those other boys. I used to coach middle school football and saw this a lot. The others will catch him and pass him, unfortunately.
