Incredible talent. I just hope she can stay clear of eating disorders, overtraining and abusive or incompetent coaches that so many super talented young runners fall victim to, so she can reach her potential as an adult, physically and mentally.

[@gary1961]

Sensible comment.

[@Speedofsound9]

Do some runners develop eating disorders? In what way?

[@jakerussell135]

@@Speedofsound9 its surprisingly common in female athletes. I think it has to do with being too aggressive with reaching a target race weight

[@Speedofsound9]

@jakerussell135 really eh? I wouldn't have guessed. Thanks for the info! I always assumed runners were mowing down food and training everyday

[@SuperFuzzyDunlop]

@@Speedofsound9 There's a big advantage to being light in distance running, and it can be very tempting to push it too far. Chronic underfueling can work in the short term, but it's always paid for in injuries and burnout in the longer term - and sometimes even more serious life limiting issues EDs are particularly common among young female runners, and because of this you find that many of the fastest adult female runners weren't exceptionally quick during their high school years, and vice versa. The teen runners who eat well give themselves the best chance to develop into fast, resilient adults - but couldn't quite compete with the super skinny whippets who were starving themselves through puberty, but whose bodies don't fully develop as a result. Unfortunately some coaches even encourage it or bully their young athletes in to unhealthy dieting to benefit from their short term success. There's a special place in hell for them.

[@janetstorm7881]

I'm a runner, an avid runner, run up to 10 miles a day and run close to a 20 min 5k, I jumped in a 5k new years eve race in Virginia and I ran very hard, but when we got to the turn around point, I saw that this tiny child was killing most of us. I finished the 5k in like 22 mins, but later found out that the child was 9 years old and beat me by several minutes. Yep I was crushed by a 9 year old, and I was sprinting at the end and barely held off a 12 year old. I don't know what little kids are eating nowadays, but damn! LMAO! 🤣

[@dillonbritt4767]

I might know who this girl is. I also live in Virginia lol. A friend of mine told me a 9 year old beat him and he runs high 19s/low 20s

[@bambus0404]

Not only is she 12, but she had her birthday THE SAME WEEK as this race...! So she has almost a full year to run even faster as a 12 year old. Norway have several amazing young runners now. Like Per August Halle Haugen, just 13, who ran a 10k on 32.43.

[@Amogus-qw5ph]

Some 16 year old kid ran 29:35 from Norway too

[@artugaradukin6119]

32.43? Fantastic. I guess this is the best time ever 13 year. Kobe Stewart, Australia, was 12 year and 8 months when he did 33.08.94 back in 2020. This time is also world leading time for 13 years old. But this list over world leading time dont include all countries. Could be some africans with better times.

[@apollosun2913]

Awesome running! Congrats :) It brought back memories from when I was 8 and I ran a 10k on the road in 48 mins. Ah, nostalgia ;)

[@philipt.narvestad8966]

This race is called Lierløpet and is hosted in my hometown Lier in Norway. The course they ran is not really that hilly, but it’s a bit rough and has a lot of sharp turns. I have ran the same stretch many times, although not nearly as fast as she did. It is absolutely insane how she ran so fast. I would also like to add that Karoline Grøvdal also set a new 5k Norwegian road race record on the same course, so it hosted two new Norwegian records this year.

[@imdoc7872]

The norwegians are killing it. It’s their revolutionary lactate threshold training.

[@jammybilly]

Love this channel. I hope you follow this girl's progress the way you have many other athletes that you feature, like Katelyn Tuohy, Femke Bol etc

[@nightworg]

I run parkrun many times a year and 16.39 is crazy fast for a girl. Even for a women that will almost always be the fastest time for any female in any parkrun.

[@gonzayare]

Amazing talent and great job from pacers around her. Honestly I could be amazed looking a 12 years old girl running that pace in a mile, mind blowing in a 5k, just incredible.

[@wesleydeng71]

I still remember I ran a 22'50 5K when I was 12 and was proud of it 🤣

same, i used to run 25 at that age

[@StrandedKnight84]

As a kid growing up in Norway in the 90s I was always told that to be a world-class runner you needed African genes. Now we have several runners who have completely shattered that notion. As a result, he new generation has much greater belief in themselves.

[@TheMaestromMephisto]

dont let anyone fool you its genes we used to run to school at a very tender age so in reality its like training and the earlier you start followed by consistency over a period of years you will be world class, same case applies to any other sport

[@albertlanger2339]

A top video and shows what our kids can achieve when we are not expecting it. 20 years ago my son did an incredible swimming achievement gaining him the Australian title for freestyle. It was a 50 m race and he entered at his best time which got him into line 8 in the first heat. He took off .5 of the second and after three heats he was in the final race. In that race, the other competitors were of his first heat time basically being all equal. I watched him with his team and he was just focused and not mingling with his teammates. In the final, he took another .5 from his previous time making that one second.

[@christopherderrell8470]

This is FAST! Congrats to her and her fam

[@mattmoler4831]

I can't think of anyone who was this good as a kid and ended up not being a bust later in their career

[@MickTemple]

Was looking for a comment like this to express my whole hearted belief. I am 15 and have been running 10 years competitively, 13 years total. I have seen so many “good” runners come and go. Have placed second in XC states, gone to national meets, or small local 5ks so I've seen a lot. What I notice is it's the way people train nowadays. Was just talking to a solid competitor of mine in recent years and he got a stress fracture. He won't be competing for a while and most likely will go like the rest of them and be unremarkable. They will get fast times quickly, but they cannot maintain them over the years. Still impressive, but notice it's on a road (perfect surface) and wearing supershoes. My PR is 15:07 ON GRASS AND HILLS and it's going to continue to improve. My teammates also have this instant success mindset and it's not good. They aren't improving and over the long run have actually gone backwards.

Link isn't working, but I ran this at a post season race so it's been measured. This course doesn't look it, but it has gradual up hills and a quick up and down when we pass over a bike path. It's all on grass and the day of I almost slipped on some turns because of the mud. 5 years old is Kindergarten and my school offered a grade school running program so my Dad put me in it. We had already been running together off and on. It's okay if you don't believe me but I'm not lying.

[@keiffactory]

Another girl from Canada, who is even younger (11) ran 17:56 at the Niagara Falls 5K. These kids are getting soooo fast

[@artugaradukin6119]

Yes, 17:56 is a very good time for a girl 11 years old. This norwegian girl run 17:16 when she was 11 year. I guess it is an unoffisiell world best time. I know an australian girl same age run 17:41 in 2020, and it was until now the world best time on 5K for girls 11 years.

[@ithinkthereforeitalk935]

Bruh, she's just 12, a lot can change in 10 yeras from now. She might fall in love, go to college and do million other thing that would interfere with her running career (if we can call it that) and just stop running altogether. Now she's the best in her age group but as she gets older she will have to compete against other incredibly gifted girls which means she will need to run her but off just to stay competitive - statistically, not many people are going to choose a running career over many other more lucrative avenues of life when faced with this challenge.

[@moaningpheromones]

Well the trick is how does she progress from here? Is she on a trajectory of quicker and quicker times towards low 14s in 4-6 years or is she going to hit a plateau much sooner? It's a long way to low 15s, as good as she is. Girls develop faster as well, and she could be just super fast at getting most of her growth now, without much to go. You don't see much about the top women runners in terms of what times they could run at age 11-16. A lot don't even start running until then so there's less to compare. What does she weigh - 35kg? 30kg? Might get a bit harder unless she tops out at 40kg. Shivers.

[@doragreen3887]

Whattt😮 I’ve got decades of running under my belt and my PB is 24:48! This girl is amazing!! Can’t wait til she’s in her 20s or 30s with some serious endurance built up!

[@pavolhorvath7850]

I think her future is potentially amazing .

It was never a case of whether he won or not, it was always a case of by how far. But he decided after several years to just quit.

Waw..... talented girl to run at that timing

[@josephgonzalez_]

It’s a great time for a 12 year old. I’m genuinely not sure a kid this young should be able to do this - normally I’d expect young people of this age to be on the track getting fast over the shorter distances, not running the miles needed to get fast over a 5k. I just hope it doesn’t affect her longevity in the sport.

[@scotland369]

Are these clips from the race? It seems odd to have all those runners grouped up running 16.30pace. Usually, 16.30 would win any parkrun, or you'd be strung out with leaders

[@TotalRunningProductions]

Yes these clips come from the actual race. Also the group around her was pacing her through much of the 5k so she could get a fast time.

[@niklasnilsson4705]

It's Norway, now every runner wants to be a new Ingebrigtsen or Warholm... They are really serious when it comes to sports.

[@lanagorgeous9485]

Kids nowadays, to keep it in perspective as a high school sophomore Katelyn Tuohy ran a 9:44 two mile and a 15:30ish 5k. If she ran those times at the district championship when I was in high school in the late 70's, she would have beat all the boys in the 12 schools represented and made it to the state of Pennsylvania championships. Kids nowadays are just kicking butt!

She reminds me of a young 12 year old Grace Ping, 7th Grader, who took down the ENTIRE Roy Griak High School Field. WOW!

[@artugaradukin6119]

Yes, i thought the same. But Grace Ping was almost a year older then this girl. Ping run 5K in 16.44, only 3 weeks before she was 13 years.

Hope she keeps going whatever she does. 16:39 is flying at that age.

[@RalphredoHughes]

She has a lovely, natural style. A lot of these quick kids fade away when they do through development. Speed at such a young age tends to suggest you simply have physical advantages over your peers. But she doesn't look like that. She looks the real deal.

[@rollingfeet]

When she ran 17:16, she opened with the lead pack with a first km of around 3:00, so she really bunked in that race. This race she had pacers all the way.

its unfortunate that usually the most talented don't have the drive or the love of the sport to become great. the ones who are obsessed and devoted are almost never the most talented.. maybe one in a generation, one will come along with the talent the drive, devotion and obsession, but its extremely rare. Maybe she will be one of them ?

[@RalphredoHughes]

Running doesn't really work that way. The reason super fast kids tend not to go on to achieve incredible feats is simply because they have been given physical advantages at an earlier age. It's not down to lack of desire. Kids need to get through ages 13-17 and then see where they are. Things tend to even out. And then, at around that age, the real talent starts to show, when aerobic and anaerobic ability combines and times start tumbling. For boys, it's not uncommon to see lads who were running 19 or so for 5k, push that down to 15/16 minutes in the space of 18 months. They just take off. The one thing that can be tough for the fast youngsters is that all of a sudden everyone catches up to them (literally).

[@philipmemm]

@@RalphredoHughes true, and especially for this girl who is only 12.. i guess my point is the really talented runners are rarely obsessed like the really good untalented kids who put in the training. 🤷‍♂

I'm starting to get more and more confused on how kids that are not even hitting puberty yet are getting 5ks sub 17 and 18 nowadays. And it seems like it's happening EVERYwhere I TURN. Is the world actually more fit than back in the 1950s and people lied to us about the modern people being lazy nowadays? Or is the technology really that good? Well, whatever it is, it's pretty crazy how young these kids are getting these fast times.

[@pavolhorvath7850]

It is due to understanding of physiology and training methods. If you look back to 1950s, how runners trained, it was really ineffective and stupid.

[@RalphredoHughes]

Kids are no more or less fit. Running is more popular. Parkrun means everyone is timed. Fast, flat road races. My personal bug bear is super shoes. No kid should be running in carbon plated Vaporflys.

[@RalphredoHughes]

@@pavolhorvath7850 Nah. These kids aren't training that hard at that age. It's just the fact parkrun is so popular so everyone gets timed.

[@Bweyg]

@@RalphredoHughes I've personally never used any modern super shoes until more recently when I tried it out for a 3 mile tempo run and a 2 mile race, and they weren't vapor or ahplaflys, they were nova blast. Most of the time I use normal non super shoes, and I'm planning to get a pair of barefoot shoes or whatever those are called. I want to strengthen my feet so when I DO use the super shoes I'll have a big advantage and it will help a lot.

I’m 12 and my fastest ever mile is 5:50. And I thought I was fast

[@Disciplinedmind100]

Yo this is crazy, I run 800m in 1:58 as a 13 year old but 16:39 as a 12 year old is so fast

[@RalphredoHughes]

You did not run a 1.58 800m at 13.

What are they feeding these kids. 😂

[@mockinghyena960]

Wait, she's 12?

[@lennoxamisi9979]

Now I'm not happy abouf my 19.48 Pr😐

[@itry2brational]

Since I've been tracking running results on milesplit and other sites it seems there are definitely some events with an incorrect distance. I'm skeptical.

She ran the 600m in 1:38 this summer
