@@amvlabs5339 not any person can just get good at track. While it does take training and getting the proper running form, you need natural talent too. Basically all Olympic sprinters have the best running form they can get, but they aren’t all the same speed. You have to be fast to run fast

@@miashoe2509 that's absolute nonsense. Height, training and not having health issues/impediments related to movement are what make a great runner a great runner. No one born with "talent" in running. There's no such thing as talent in track. It's the complete opposite. You have to focus real hard to discard your bad habits to actually run in the proper form and squeeze every ounce of speed out of yourself. It's why runners all come so close to each other, just like F1 racers. It's all about training and technique and more than ever, science these days.

@@amvlabs5339 @AMV Labs What absolute BS. Of course some people have natural talent in running just like some people have natural talent in ball sports or swimming. But in that natural talent it might be some people have faster twitch muscles or bigger lungs and were born to run fast. Of course training makes a natural talent into a champion, but saying natural talent isn't a thing is retardation.
I can't believe I just saw 10 year old run a 55sec 400. Those of us who ran the 400 in jr. leagues will truly appreciate how incredible this is.

55.74 😲 Lil man got ELITE SPEED! great job 👍
We had a guy in 4th grade, he was 10 at the time but he ran extremely fast. No one could keep up with him. His speed was very impressive, but what was more impressive was that he could keep the maintain the same form for the whole race. Im in 8th grade now and I was in a race with him. We were tied at first but after 100 metres or so, i started to go slower and slower cuz i was tired, but he ran at the same speed and only slowed down when he was a few metres away from the finishing line. I finished at 2nd place yet the difference between first and second place was like almost 50 metres and that was only because he slowed down at the end or else it wouldve been even more.
These children are amazing!! Why doesn't this get news coverage? Beautiful my little ones! Pint size men... Congratulations!!

Track running speed means that you're actually faster(possibly much faster) than that particular rate of speed, because you don't have to bend down or stay in a narrow lane in other sports or other modes of running! You just run without hindrance!

I couldn't even do that when I was 18 at my peak in track and field in highschool after 4 years in track and field and 3 in cross-country and I have decent genetics and an ectomorph body type and eat good and all of that. Man God gave that kid crazy good genetics. The most I ever got my 400 was like 70 seconds but that's totally fine with me because I gave it everything and trained harder than most but I just mostly compete with myself. I mean the 400 wasn't really my race but like still hard to believe like a ten year old could be best me at it, maybe not in the long run but wow.

@iMonkey Well it's the genetics I got and the body God gave me so, 🤷 and I run more the longer distance.yeah If I was like born Kenyen then that might be different but he predestined me to have this body. I would say about 1/3 of running is genetic, how tall you are, body type, conditions, abilities..., another quarter is how good your coaches are, if they are supportive and challenge you but don't get you injured and know how to train, and your training regement, discipline, what you eat, and sleep, overall physical, emotional, spiritual health, about another quarter is your mental toughness, tenacity, and shear will, and only about an 1/8 is your form and skill.
Future stars! Wonder if he will run for his parents home country Jamaica or run for America where he was born? Either way this kid will be seen in about 5 years in the under 20 competitions and then world and Olympic Games! Watch him! Big up Omar! Big up Vic and Marlene Thomas🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇺🇸
