Very common to see very fast teenagers who top-out early then fade away. I know this because I too, was a very successful youth athlete. I was ranked in the top 8 in the world as a junior at one point, with a windy 10.38 and legal 10.40's at age 17, 18, 19 etc... But the demands of normal life, work, family etc ensured I couldn't put the focus and efforts in as needed to stay at my best. I did make a comeback at age 29 and hit some 10.50's and into my early 30's but we never the same as when I was 17-20 years old.

Great video, nice job on the compilation 👍

Would love to see this kind of video for other events such as High jump!

Good and informative video. There are several things "in play" here. For the younger sprinter age groups, one often sees the field divided by puberty. And even after most kids have entered puberty, the length of their growth cycle matters where larger people tend to continue growing over longer time spans. Anyway, we all have seen the "men among boys" featured in sporting events. Just typically speaking and broadly across most sports, precocious athletes most often peak early. This is true in weightlifting in classes where bodyweights are limited; true, too, in pro football where star running backs coming in to the NFL are often as good (yards per carry) as they will ever be within a year or so. One last comment that the more "skill" a sport has, the longer the potential to increase performance exists.

love it! Did you do a reverse list? maybe top 20 or even top50 runners and what they looked like before age10?

very interesting video

I remember at high school in New Zealand, one of our boys ran 11 sec flat. We were all amazed at that.

it's funny that a 14 year old boy can beat the Women's 100m world record.

It's often just down to the rate at which some boys mature physically towards adolescence versus the majority. Simple example, at 11, I was the fastest over 100m in my year at school...but the following year, I was overtaken by two other boys both of whom had by then started to sprout facial hair etc when I was still waiting for the first hair under an armpit and elsewhere haha. This difference in growth rate is why the vast majority of child prodigies in sport exist and why they then disappear again when adolescence catches up for everyone and the playing field is levelled out again. It is only then that one can really see who the most talented are.

I never knew or thought about records per age. I remember seeing a lad younger than me (so had to be 13 or younger) run a 10.something and thinking he had that extra edge over the field. Just assumed he had trained and would go on to decent competitions. I knew I couldn’t have beaten him, and was running 400m that day which I won, but later that year I ran 11.2 in the 100 on grass - and I could only think back to that lad and be in awe of him and wondered if bothering to go training would’ve made a difference. Although I would’ve found it highly dull. Having said that, my strength was very short burst speed - ideal for my rugby and think it would’ve been better received if I had lived in the states. It’s like football/soccer. There were some truly talented lads at my school who would’ve just failed school and disappeared. When I went to collage I met a lad doing A-level PE and was an England player, yet he wasn’t as talented as those lads I once knew. He even asked me to go easy on him in his trials & demonstration assessment. It’s often about chance. Or who you know. I had it first hand at county trials for rugby. Was selected in the final roster after the trials; was asked my details, but then after seeing them huddle talking, they turned back and said technically I couldn’t play because I went to a school in the wrong location yet I lived in that county. Sure enough the next county never even let my try-out due to my home address. Some kid got lucky that day.

What a unique idea for a video. I have always wondered about age-group winners and whether they kept running. Great job!! Now, how about the girls??

@JumpmanTF

6 ай бұрын

I already made it. Haha.

I left this comment on the Noah Lyles video on Total Running Productions site but it remains relevant to this video: 'His coach is on point and has the correct understanding. That training target below your current potential with a gradual close towards peak personal ability is the way to go. There is almost no point in forcing a teenage prodigy to push to their maximum ability at that age (for example). It is much more holistic and goal-oriented to sub-maximally develop and prime the machinery for that end-point to be attained when the physical form and neurodevelopment would support such an outcome. Sprinters usually achieve this between their mid-20s to early 30s. Prior to this, it serves near to no purpose to train and function close to your maximal output and inherently increases the risk of injury that would almost certainly reduce the upper limit of potential ability. Any Achilles' tendon rupture or hamstring tear would almost certainly reduce the output and result (sprint times, peak velocity) that could have been delivered otherwise. Often the hardest part is the psychological and mental reframing that is required in individuals who are so highly driven in such a pursuit. Sometimes, it can be to their detriment.' Young people should not be discouraged by their results or standing relative to others until the peak point of personal musculoskeletal, neurological and psychological development has passed. The curve of development and peak demonstrates a great degree of variation and the ultimate result is not reliably predicable with a great degree of confidence. If life provides a moment to reflect, it is that lesson that should be passed on the the younger peoples... keep pushing and don't look over the fence too much.

Now most of the best dropped out of sport altogether, whereas the one whobwere just behind them carried on and made it to the top.

They were much better at a younger age. This has a lot to do with the culture they grew up in and doesn't say much on how good they will be when they're adults. (I once played a tournament where the Russian kids didn't get to eat that night if they lost against one of our players).

Darril brown's career was held back alot by injuries.

I agree, It's extremely difficult to stay at the top. And sprinting is a VERY youthful sport. And most teenagers or any younger generation don't want to dedicate themselves entirely to something while all their friends are eating what they, doing what they want... The brain has no fully developed until you lose your fast twitch fibres :/

I got cripple when i was 6 weeks old due to braininjury cut the connection to my upper leg muscles. Took me 19 years just to walk. But i am pretty sure i trained more then most professional athletes. Being able to walk without help or devices is one hell of a motivator. But if you don't mind i pass when it comes to walking records..

Youth phenoms power to weight ratio is very high. It's hard to maintain that because theirs is so out of balance. Wear and tear and maintaining that power while gaining weight asking with motivation can be daunting

Anyone who has done Track events professionally know the largest determining factor later on is a well-designed, quality doping programme. Always has been since the 1980s.

I've held my high school 15 yo discus record (1kg/2.2lb) at 51.04 m since 1986 . What's sad is that the younger gen haven't beaten that as records are meant to be broken . It bugs me that it still stands because some seriously talented prospects aren't involved in sport these days .

51 is a decent record for a specific high school. It's going to be tough to break.

The VAST majority of teenage star sprinters do not become senior star sprinters. Only a very small minority of champion teenage sprinters have gone on to make an Olympic final. Ato Boldon has spoken about this subject many times.

I agree. It comes down to having all the variables in check, good coaching, nutrition, talent, and staying injury free. Even then your chances are still slim

There was a 13 year old last year in the UK that Ran a 10.86 100 meter !!!

Exciting discussion! Basically a majority of the BEST are in track clubs, so they train almost year round and getting exposure to high quality coaching and competition. So they can advance between seasons versus those who only run during the season. Many of the best also started REALLY young! I'm following a 400m runner whose now a Freshman in College and she's been in a track club since 2nd grade! On the one coach that said most men could make better than 11.00 seconds if they trained fully for it. Perhaps not in one year, but i suspect in 2-4 years depending upon their athleticism and build they could get there with excellent coaching and strength training. They won't be elite, but they can make it into the 10's. So if you are fat, you would lose the weight and get it close to a track body for your height. You would have your body fat down 5-9%. You would have a strong core. You would have good strength for your weight as evidenced by a 2-3x body weight squats and a 1.5-2x body weight power cleans. Your vertical jump would be over 34" and if it currently is not you would start working on it. ( See Isaiah Rivera for his jumping program that took him from barely 24" to 50.5" in 4 years and he could've done it in 2 if he knew everything knows now ). So guys are getting on all this "genetics" and fast twitch fibre thing. Even Christian Coleman started out as a strong skinny dude and ran 11.8 his first year as a Sophomore. So that means he likely started in the 12's just like many other strong skinny dudes. As a Junior it was 10.92 and a Sr it was 10.29. Those time drops lead me to believe he worked on it 6+ months out of the year. Asafa Powell who has sub 9.90 with JA also had similar time drops of 11.9 his first year and took 2 years to make 10.5 seconds, and then got into a good club and the time drop to 10.2 and 10.0. The story is out there somewhere. Then the incredible youth athletes who gave it it up... Well they stopped running and playing and lost quite a bit of their speed, but if they got back into it and trained for a year, getting their body built right they would be pretty good. Then they could do it again for another few years. But anyway basically the best are in track clubs. Power and speed ARE coach able. It's a known fact now. You might not make it to the elite level, but if you are willing to put in the work you could be in the upper 10-20% of speed. Basically you make a start at it by cutting out any excuses, fully committing and putting in the work.

I am three and a half years old right now and I managed to get my first sub 7 second time on 100m. It was unofficial though, because the person who clocked the time was busy looking for boogers in his nose. But i swear on my albino Tiger that its a true story and I just lost the Guinness paper where it says WORLD RECORD. I also played THE FLASH in the TV series because of it. That way they didnt had to use special effects. Its really true and it happened.

He's been plagued by injury since running 10.09 at the U20 late last year. Probably pushed himself beyond his limits and suffered for it. Seems to have recovered now though, judging from his performance in the Asian Championships 4x100 relay July 12.

you should update the list, the two fastest under-20 athletes are Letsile Tebogo who ran in 9.91 in 2022 and Issam Asinga in 9.89, under-20 world record and also South American record

One day, when more records change, can't really update a video once it's out.

This needs an update asap😂

A few changes haha

Could you do the 400m?

Brown, who is five years younger than myself ran the same 100m time (10.82) as a 13 year-old in 1997 than I did that same year. How embarrassing!

Insane

A 6 year old being faster than I've ever been. That is insane. I'm certainly not fast when it comes to speed, but considering my size it just sounds insane for any 6 year old to be faster.

1:07 Do many runners place their feet sideways when running ?

I coached sprinters for many years, and I always said I did not care who the fastest 15 year olds were, because the kids who are just starting to hit their stride at 18 are statistically superior over the long term. Fred Kerley, anyone?

Running fast is one thing. Winning world competitions without doping is another.
