Okay, I haven’t commented on this kid. Because typically it leads to predictions of his future, and people don’t understand it’s more complex than simply “so fast so young=really fast older”it’s not that simple. But now I must speak. GOD DAMN!!! This kid is impressive!
🗣️“I wasn’t qualifying for the Olympics today, for me this was more about conquering my own self doubt that I could compete with those guys. And that’s what I did. I kept saying ‘Just keep fighting. Don’t give an inch. If you die, that’s okay, just fight all the way to the end. Show people that you belong in that conversation.”

“I raced my hardest and did everything that I could. There’s nothing I look back on and am disappointed about, other than not getting top three. But that’s okay, I’ve got a good life.”
