Haha the competition was poor. The 8yr old, however, is a beast.

[@Chattannooga]

Only 2

That's my sister the older one. That was an open meet. The last section of many 400m heats that day.

All the other contestants were at home playing video games or on the internet.

[@TC_83]

Geran Tate hahaha, how many adult runners do you know that’d be beaten by an 8 year old? She clearly isn’t a runner in any way, shape or form! Also a persons build has no correlation to their ability.

@@thomasputnam9847 there's no such thing as being good at a sport you don't love doing i started running when i was 6 and i've been working my ass off ever since then, i'm 14 now, my parents don't like that I run because they always see a lot of pain in my face when I'm running races, now I'm a 4:27 miler and i LOVE it, without running my childhood would've been ruined, I'd have really nothing else to do

why and ruin her adulthood by having to work everyday to survive or she could make a big name for herself make lots of money and be set in her adult life, don't ruin that for her.

51 years ago in seventh grade I was close to twice this kids age and ran a 70 second 400 yard time (zero track training). I did not have near the form this girl has. She's incredible and I look forward to watching her tear up the track as she gets older. Cheers

[@aarontrzeciak2298]

Guy Daley For people who ran track in the winter season that’s all you would see. They are indoors at most, if not all colleges and universities. All race times would be a little slower than you could run outdoors because more turns less straitaways. So this girl probably runs a little better time outdoors. Very impressive feat. My best was a 50.5 second outdoor 400m in high school.
