12-Year-Old Drops 51 second 400m At Nationals!

Watch 2021 adidas Indoor Nationals live and on demand: flosports.link/...
Quincy Wilson, an 12-year-old from Chesapeake, Virginia, dropped a 51.78 second 400 meter race on Friday during the first day of adidas Indoor Nationals in Virginia Beach.
It marked an amazing improvement from his previous performance on the Virginia Beach Sports Center track in December, when the Track 757 athlete authored a time of 56.36 at the VA Beach Club Opener.
As far as records are concerned, though, Wilson still has some room to grow. But he does at least compare to the current USATF age 11-12 record holder Bryce Love, who posted a time of 50.75 seconds in 2009. Love graduated Wake Forest (NC) High School in 2015.

He looks relaxed enough to be a great 800 meter runner as well

Even though i'd run against him he should run the 800 he'd be a great runner

And that's on a indoor track. Tighter curves. Probably equivalent to a 51 flat on the outdoor track. I ran in the Junior Olympics decades ago, and even a 51 is amazing for 13-14 year old age group. The National winner usually running a 49. Quincy should be running a 49 when he is 12 or 13.

Some people also run faster indoors as well

FYI he just spilt 45 low at Penn as a true freshman and is the new balance 400 meter indoor champ at 46. This is the future. He runs for bullis high school md

Hoping this dude hasn't peaked already, very possible though, see it way to often with middle schoolers running insane times. Time will tell

[@bowhunter8532]

I doubt he has peaked. Usually sprinters keep getting better. I do see it often with middle and long distance runners

[@breezygocrazy9721]

the thing is these phenoms from 14 and below will peak out. Also they probably started young and this is my first year. and im running fast for more age like right now i have the potential to run 12.9 in the 100 meters. but right now im running 13.3 or 13.4 but that is good and decent for my age and for my level. So that means i wont peak out. I could still if i doing extreme workouts but i dont. That means when im 16 i will run very fast.

[@bowhunter8532]

I agree with ya bud. I am bringing along my son slowly. He doesn't need to be doing extreme workouts right now

[@breezygocrazy9721]

@@bowhunter8532 yes don't peak them too early because if you do they will be running the same time high school that they are now.

When you say, "Now learn HUMILITY," are you referring to something Quincy did at the end of the race when other people reached out to congratulate him?
