I'm 13 and can run 100 yards in 8.5 seconds am i fast?

Question

i can run the 100 meter dash in 8.5 seconds does that make me runningback matirial

Answer 1

I strongly suggest retiming yourself...

Answer 2

you have to be more then just fast to be a running back

Answer 3

No, you are a world class track star if you can run 100 yards in 8.5 seconds. The world record was set un 1974 by Ivory Crockett.

Hope this helps

Answer 4

i think you must have really messed up your timing.  The world record for 100 meters is in the 9's

Answer 5

Yup, I'm 60 .. I can't even walk that far

Answer 6

yeh ur fast as.

Maybe do a sport that involves fast running.

for egsample.

miny aths or something

Answer 7

apparently your the new world record holder 1 cuz the current 100 yard dash record holder runs a 9.74 +1.7 Asafa Powell 9 September 2007 Rieti, so yea your pretty fin' fast haha

Answer 8

um idk.. hundred yards and hundred meters is really diffrent.. my best time is 14.28.  i know it sux but i havent ran in a long time. ://

Answer 9

hahahaha...you make me laugh.

Answer 10

I think that might be your 50 yard time..

Answer 11

1.  100 meter dash and 100 yards aren't the same distance, so you couldn't possibly run the same times for both.

2. The world record for the 100 meter dash is 9.74 seconds with Wind: +1.7 m/s, by Asafa Powell of Jamaica on September 9, 2007 in Rieti.  So I doubt you can run 1.24 seconds faster than the world record at 13 years old...unless you are Flash and are just walking :P

3.  Since you would be holding the world records in 100 yards and 100m, yes you would be the fastest running back in the world.

4.  You might want to re-do your 100 yd/100m because I think your times are too fast to be true.

5.  Yes you are fast if you can run those times, but again, I don't think those are your real times.  (Not calling you a liar, but maybe your watch was broken or something.)

Good luck being a running back!

Answer 12

better redo that.  the current world record is 9.74 s made by Asafa Powell of Jamaica, set in Rieti, Italy on 9 September 2007. You didn't get 8.5.  Either you weren't running 100 meters or your timer was wrong.

Answer 13

Well considering the world record is 9.74 set by Asafa Powell in 2007 I would say your the fastest man alive. lol

Answer 14

Hmm.. thats kind of odd because Asafa Powell  set the record at 9.74 seconds in 2007, so I guess you must be the new world champion.

I would suggest getting yourself retimed, but have fun with it.

Answer 15

um, are you sure that thats your time. i mean the olympic athletes cant even do that. are you sure its not 18.5? if its 18.5 then its kinda slow no offence.

Answer 16

yes your fast and im strong cuz i can bench press 8 tons

Answer 17

it means you are a liar...considering the world record is 9.74 set by Asafa Powell in 2007....it could also mean your stopwatch doesnt work

Answer 18

sure

Answer 19

whoaa yes! you're incredible

Answer 20

well i doubt you are even 13 or that fast. your probably 40 balding with dunlap disease.

Answer 21

fastest person ever.

Answer 22

well sounds like ur liar to me. the world record is around 9.4. so u might wanna check it out.

but if u really want to be running back material having speed is a good thing, lieing is not. With speed ull need strength not just brute force but the kind of strength of keep getting hit and moving forward. Thats main reason people dont play football because they dont like to get hit and believe me it hurts like h**l if u dont train for it.
