High school senior runs 9.98 in the 100m, the fastest ever for a high schooler

Unfortunately it doesn't count as a national record. The tailwind was too much to count

HS: Strake Jesuit in Houston, Tx

Shit, and the guy is white?!

This kid averaged over 22 mph in the race. Obviously this means his peak speed was faster, as he wasn't going thay fast the whole time.

He'll be described as a high motor, smart runner. More quick than fast. Very coachable.

It doesn't count because too much tailwind, but they all had the same tailwind.. so are white ppl more aerodynamic?

7 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

His win still counts, but the record doesn't as he has an advantage over people who ran in different conditions

Why are they running clockwise on the track? Did they change direction because of the wind?

7 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Yea they are running with the tailwind. Most meets will do that for events on the straightaway

I’m impressed because it wasn’t a great start. However that was an awesome run. In College with coaching the sky is the limit

I knew a guy back in the 90s when we were in HS running that time. He was on track for the Olympics until he blew out his knees

Great time and all that, but why is the track arranged so that they run the wrong direction? All USA tracks are set to run CCW (I thought).

Personally I can't be excited about a kid breaking an athletic record without worrying that its just a result of drugs :|

Lol if I knew this kid I wouldn't need to worry vaguely. But records aren't broken without some kind of edge. Be it intrinsic drive or other

10 seconds for 100m s 10m/s which is 36km/h, or around ~23m/h. That's rather impressive for human beings.

7 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

That’s average. To run 10.0 you have to hit roughly 43km/h

7 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Um... no? 10m/s linearly translates to 36km/h.

7 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Yea thats average speed. If your top speed is 36km/h you wont go faster than 11.2-11.5.

I'm sure that college coaches are seeing that he wasn't dominant out of the blocks, meaning he can get even faster. I'm impressed by all.

7 years ago | Likes 48 Dislikes 24

The starting blocks are those things you kick out of when the race starts. And he had a comparatively slow start so he could improve a lot.

How? If you are biologically predisposed to running, how is it racist to call it out? I have dark skin and I don’t get sunburnt, that’s not

7 years ago | Likes 9 Dislikes 2

2/2 racist to call it out. If ppl with African heritage are predisposed to faster running or even heart conditions, it’s not racist.
