Answer 1

Holy c**p!!!  This is going to sound really weird, but my name is Alex to, and I ran the same time in the 100m just like you.  After that I had to build up for basketball so I wouldn't get that again for a while.  But if you work at it, you will might just run with the jamacians.

Answer 2

12 seconds sounds to be a pretty good time to me, but dont go expecting Olympic times at 14-15 =P. If you practice your start you may be able to knock a couple tenths of a second off, and that can be the difference between 1st and 4th in a close race

Answer 3

You could be getting very competiteve because 12 seconds is very good. But it alll comes down to how much you practice and train. Work on running 50m and just pure work on your form. You should get asics spikes but make sure that you get the pyamid spikes NOT the 3/8 inch.

Yeah dude that is pretty dang fast. If you really work at it you will be great by the time you reach high school! Don't slack off and keep up the good work and there will be great things in your future!
