Girl in 2nd would be better over a longer distance (cross country ) with her shorter more economical stride. When they set off I thought how does a 12 year old keep this pace up over 1500m
Dennis Page Much better to go fast in the beginning. It’s a stupid idea of the ‘last burst of energy” at the very end. In reality, it’s much easier to work hard in the beginning, then pace, them transition from medium to fast when you’re already tired.
I just want to say that one at the very back was amazing. These videos always concentrate on the huddle of people at the front but never the ones at the back
What an amazing finish! If she continues like that, the American middle distance athletics will be on par with the African elite runners in a few years to come. Way to go! 👏🏽👏🏼👏🏽👏🏼
That’s what I do every time I have to run long/middle distance. I stay right behind the leader, then over take them in the final sprint. (For all the sprinters out there like me 🙃) I do 70m, 100m, 200m, 60 hurdles, long jump, triple jump.
ur joking right lmao, they would get a 5:30 if it was a mile, probably more. those aren't good times if you search up other 12 year olds. I don't even train for running miles, i train for marathons, but that's only 3 times a week and i get 4:40 on my mile times
Krypto well dats not right anyway cause at 2:00hr flat marathon pace they go 4:34 per mile so ur not right there better luck next time that u try to criticize 12 year-old girls times!!
Ok, everyone! It may not be a crazy finish, but you don't have to say rude things like this about us runners who are trying hard to become national champs. They did well, and they should be proud of themselves. I am proud to have met them and run against them in March 2019.
Jordynn to see the progress you’ve made over the past year has been amazing. You are blessed with a desire to excel that is second to none. While others participate you dominate. Keep up the great work. #BeElite
Reinis Martinsons no they didn’t I run track and we have kids who start out on the mile as fast or faster than that and hey get 6 minute miles they are in 7th and 8th grade tho
I did an 800m sprint race today and absolutely roasted the other racers by about half a length. Pretty proud of myself, but this is amazing though, good job!
everyone here hating on the title of video and the spectator not paying attention to the fact that 12 year old girls just ran a 5:07 1500m. does no one realize how insane this is. puts the girls on the track team at my highschool to shame
im a 12 year old boy and did the 1500 in 4nutes and 43 seconds the fastest in United Kindom an dthe 100 metre record in Europe with 12.4 seconds! Well done girls!!!
The girl that won showed real courage. She fell back a few steps 2or 3 times in the last few laps. If you put on a sprint and begin to catch up, then fall back even a few steps after that, usually that's it for you. She did that 3 times and still had a kick coming home. Great effort.
Not really true I ran 5k's, and used a burst of energy in the start to get in front of everyone then paced myself, and used a burst of Energy at the end and. Always came out front
dc rob I agree. She had a strong steady pace but no gear change in the end and never challenged when was caught. Great run tho. Impressive for 12yr olds
Sounds like it’s a good idea to get the advantage done at the start, then watch the rest trying to catch up while you switch off and keep up the gap. It may reduce a bit , but you can have the view in your favour by being a spectator at the rest of the runners, plus no bumps or incidents. Happy brain in switch off pain! Win from the start!
THAT IS CALLED HUSTLE.Yall saying it's clickbate try to be in almost last place race and get in first place please don't hate on some 12 year old girls
Excellent race run by West. Went out strong, stayed towards front to stay in it, pushed with two to go, to then finish strong with an all she had kick. She ran a smart race and gave it all she got.
Those are really good times for 12 year old girls. I remember winning my track meet at 5:10 as an 11 year old boy. These two girls would've eaten me for dinner! Good for them!
The girls coming first are pretty impressive, but the ones after 4th are pretty much average for their age (with training of course). No hate though guys!
FreyaIs Trash I don’t know what kind of high school you’re at, but people at my school are usually at least 14. Very few people on JV track and field at my school would be able to get 5:07 for a 1500m race. Maybe about three of them. Anyways, I’m pretty sure 5:07 is well above average for a time that a 12 year old girl should be getting.
It is to people who know this happens a lot. Especially with kids who are inexperienced with competition on their level. People who race know it isn't just run fast and beat everyone. If they raced against each other a few times it would be a completely different race.
For anyone who thinks this is mediocre, even the 13th place finisher would beat out of sight, 99.99% of all adult males on the planet or in the country over this distance! When the first girl took the lead, she covered the first 100m in under 17 seconds! Most men could not even sprint 100m flat out in that time! She then hit 200m in 35 seconds - she should be a sprinter!! She reached 400m in 75 seconds - 99% of all adult males would be spent by now. And yet, these are 12 year old girls and they carried on for another 1100m! Laps 3, 4, and 5 were roughly 45 seconds each, getting the next leading girl to 1km in 3:29!! That is absolutely insanely quick! That is a minute quicker than I can do it and I'm one of the fittest adult males in the country. By race end, even the 13th place finisher here would have beaten me by some distance.
Thanks mate. If you are an adult male and in good shape, such as a club level runner, you'll know how impressive these girls are. If you could beat them, then well done, you are one of the 270,000 adult males on the planet that could. Of 2.7 billion males, only just over a quarter of a million can run this fast and, if 10% are in the USA, that's just 27,000 pro, college and club runners and naturally very, very fit men, from an adult male population of approx 90 million. If you are one of these, then you should recognise what you are looking at, disregard yourself from the equation, and notice all the dozy tossers you see on the street who can barely raise a trot for 50 metres.
I might be doing a 1500m on the weekend and I've never done one and I have a sore leg and I have 4 competitions in the span of 8 days and I am going to explodeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Edit: phew I never got it but I got the 800m the next day :p
Now when my coach says to me “a 12 year old girl can run faster than that,” I won’t doubt it.
true. when I run as fast as possible these girls are stil 2x faster than me

Szelecky zita
It's not crazy, I see it all the time. A runner sits behind the leader, makes them do all the work, then blows by on the last turn.
Yeah, I was gonna say. Smart racing, just chickenshit running.
that’s what i do baha, my coach yells at me if i don’t
Girl in 2nd would be better over a longer distance (cross country ) with her shorter more economical stride. When they set off I thought how does a 12 year old keep this pace up over 1500m

Punch your coach in the nose if they yell at cha!

That's normal actually
That wasn’t crazy. The girl was just great at keeping herself in contention, then turning on the jets with lots of determination near the end.
Ok why am I watching 12 year old girls run in circles?
Dope Kicks ovals actually
Dope Kicks cause they said it was a crazy finish. I thought someone would get tackled that would be CRAZY.
Captainsparkist 👎👎👎👎
No, because he said "crazy finish ever!"
Especially at 4am
Dope Kicks 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What an amazing finish!
If she continues like that, the American middle distance athletics will be on par with the African elite runners in a few years to come.
Way to go! 👏🏽👏🏼👏🏽👏🏼
Wut bro???
This must be some new definition of the word crazy I was previously unaware of.
😂😂
The crazy part is that they allowed so many runners to qualify when clearly they were not in the same league
national champs you just pick the top 15 or so in the country
Ay bro middle distance running is hella hard and don’t forget that the lower the time the harder you can decrease your time
Great running by both...congrats!
That’s what I do every time I have to run long/middle distance. I stay right behind the leader, then over take them in the final sprint.
(For all the sprinters out there like me 🙃) I do 70m, 100m, 200m, 60 hurdles, long jump, triple jump.
Crazy? I was expecting some back flipping or some juggling with oranges at least. Great running though by the girls.
That wasn’t that crazy if you ask me, no offence to those girls that did a great job! The title was just click bait 👍
Congrats to these young women for putting in the effort required to achieve such a difficult feat.
The comments are the best part of this video
Vinniegret how old are you? LOL
OMG that was S0 cRaZy!!! How do they run on two feet like that?!
ur joking right lmao, they would get a 5:30 if it was a mile, probably more. those aren't good times if you search up other 12 year olds. I don't even train for running miles, i train for marathons, but that's only 3 times a week and i get 4:40 on my mile times

Krypto You do realise these are 12 year old girls?
Rksport Gaming I'm 12, and FanTrailerWorld Yes I realize these a re 12 year old girls, I know a lot faster girls that are 12.

That was the most insane race I've ever witnessed. I had to watch it 5 times to believe it...
;)
Wow, Jordynn West ran a very tactical race for someone her age. I'll be sure to remember her name ♥
Rian Roberson thx ❤️
LOL
Jordynn to see the progress you’ve made over the past year has been amazing. You are blessed with a desire to excel that is second to none. While others participate you dominate. Keep up the great work. #BeElite
I forgot it already.
Her strides are much wider than Anna’s
They went out way too hard in the beginning
No, the lead girl went out to hard. The next 2 runners, who eventually took 1st and 2nd, went out just right.
Bobby Wells Yeah my mistake
Reinis Martinsons no they didn’t I run track and we have kids who start out on the mile as fast or faster than that and hey get 6 minute miles they are in 7th and 8th grade tho
Reinis Martinsons That exactly what the girl wanted to do...
Taylor Dillingham But they get tired. In the early they make up for it but later they are exhausted and slow down a lot
I'm out of breath just watching this 😂
Jordynn with that amazing push at the end. 💪
I did an 800m sprint race today and absolutely roasted the other racers by about half a length. Pretty proud of myself, but this is amazing though, good job!
the 'cRaZy' finish starts at 4:50 , you're welcome.
Grace Fastrock Thanks you miss
Thanks time saver
👍🏻
I've never disliked a video ever........until today!
Even though it was not crazy I still enjoyed watching it
everyone here hating on the title of video and the spectator not paying attention to the fact that 12 year old girls just ran a 5:07 1500m. does no one realize how insane this is. puts the girls on the track team at my highschool to shame
I don't do any training and did 1500m in 7 mins and sprint at the end. I was proud of myself until I watched this 😂
Wow, that's pretty impressive. Wonder what would happen if you actually trained?
The word crazy will make this boring video click bait.
Agree
Joseph Nordenbrock m,
Joseph Nordenbrock it’s not boring. Do u run or do athletics? If u did, u would find this vid interesting
Niraiya Moodley Yes I ran distance on my own time for years after high school. This is over rated from what the title implied... click bait.
Joseph Nordenbrock well, just saying, I quite liked this vid
Nothing CRAZY about it.....it's called racing!!!
Lll NB..
You're clearly not an athlete 😒
Yaeh sport ain't no crazy 😁😀 thanks for sharing.... ALOHA
That's what we call click bait.
I'm waiting for the crazy finish
I got 9 minutes and I was proud of myself. Dang 😂😂😂
Congratulations to all participants, including winners!
I think the word "crazy" here is click bait. Wish there was a way to unsee something ;-(
im a 12 year old boy and did the 1500 in 4nutes and 43 seconds the fastest in United Kindom an dthe 100 metre record in Europe with 12.4 seconds! Well done girls!!!
Great job! 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Never in my life seen anything so CRAZY. Nutty,Wildly off the wall. ONE FOR THE AGES.
Them 3 girls lapped 8 people dam that's tough
The girl that won showed real courage. She fell back a few steps 2or 3 times in the last few laps. If you put on a sprint and begin to catch up, then fall back even a few steps after that, usually that's it for you. She did that 3 times and still had a kick coming home. Great effort.
That’s why don’t use all of ur energy from the start u should use the energy at the last moment
Not really true I ran 5k's, and used a burst of energy in the start to get in front of everyone then paced myself, and used a burst of Energy at the end and. Always came out front
Fabulous and fearless young runners. Wonderful.
Nice video, nice race, but what was CRAZY about this finish?
She ran a smart race. Good job by all of them !
That lady girl she runs so straight god bless her
When I was 11, I ran it in 6:20... and I was the best in my year group at school... wow
The girl that got second should add some speed work. She's gonna need another gear so she doesn't get out kicked at the end
dc rob I agree. She had a strong steady pace but no gear change in the end and never challenged when was caught. Great run tho. Impressive for 12yr olds
Yeah, I was pulling for that white girl in second place.
There are so many comments already about the word "crazy" that I'll just make mine "Please define "crazy" for me.
that girl makes it look easy 😂
Sounds like it’s a good idea to get the advantage done at the start, then watch the rest trying to catch up while you switch off and keep up the gap. It may reduce a bit , but you can have the view in your favour by being a spectator at the rest of the runners, plus no bumps or incidents. Happy brain in switch off pain! Win from the start!
is this a 200 meter track or 400 meter track??
Alyssa Rezner not sure but it looks like 400m
It’s 200m. Indoor facility is 200 typically
200m
You can also look at the lap times... Those are way too quick for it to be a 400 m track.
Alyssa Rezne
Amazing run for the 12 year-old girls!
The only thing CRAZY about this clip is the person that titled it Crazy!
The strength of the effort is the measure of the result.
about as crazy as a box of saltines
THAT IS CALLED HUSTLE.Yall saying it's clickbate try to be in almost last place race and get in first place please don't hate on some 12 year old girls
No matter what. Anna Graves still the The Best. Shes the Queen's from start to finish.
Between Ham Ham cheese 😐
Her little legs went twice as fast.
Can't wait to see the "crazy" finish in the boys race!
What was "crazy" about that? But good to watch.
Excellent race run by West. Went out strong, stayed towards front to stay in it, pushed with two to go, to then finish strong with an all she had kick. She ran a smart race and gave it all she got.
I’ve raced here this is the Prince George complex right
Wow! 12 year olds can really 🏃! Never seen that before. I couldn't run until 13. That was sooo crazy. 😃
Crazy finish? I was expecting something flashier.
West will never miss her school bus. Heck, she doesn’t need a school bus!
This is why I only do short distance track😂
Yessss Jordynn!!🔥🔥 I train with her and she’s really fast!
That’s insane!
Hi
Unbelievable! Wow!
I can beat that with my eyes closed
Those are really good times for 12 year old girls. I remember winning my track meet at 5:10 as an 11 year old boy. These two girls would've eaten me for dinner! Good for them!
A 10 year old girl made 4:48 that’s insane right
She them your kick baby girl 👌😞😁
That's 5 minutes and 7 seconds I am never going to get back
Thanks
Not crazy at all just a well-timed final kick by the girl who had more strength!
OMG is blasphemy. Third commandment (Exodus 20:7).
That was so close. I don't know how a winner was determined?
anyone here from 2019
Legend has it the last starter still hasn't finished. Crazy!
The girls coming first are pretty impressive, but the ones after 4th are pretty much average for their age (with training of course). No hate though guys!
wow ..... Some amazing talented runners!
Omg that is so crazy she ran slightly faster than what is considered fast for a 12 yr old. Come on plenty of 12 yr olds are that fast.
Justin Casar It’s actually abserd to expect a 12 year old girl to run that kind of time, maybe even for boys. This is pretty much high school speed.
Oat Goat 12 year olds are in high school tho
FreyaIs Trash I don’t know what kind of high school you’re at, but people at my school are usually at least 14. Very few people on JV track and field at my school would be able to get 5:07 for a 1500m race. Maybe about three of them. Anyways, I’m pretty sure 5:07 is well above average for a time that a 12 year old girl should be getting.
Oat Goat I didn’t ask about times or any of that shit, I just said that high schoolers where I live start at age 11.
FreyaIs Trash How many years do you have to go to school?
Awesome run does girls have a bright future 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Commentator is so bored , he needs a another nap.
Great Video! Love it!
Wow
There were guys from my high school running the mile in 5 minutes. That's crazy for their age
I wish I was there to run I would so beat them all lol
Amali Mcgrath could you though? I would like to see you try
um.. no need to me rood but I am as fast as a cheetah
lol I mean rude
So someone won, someone else got 2nd and here's the crazy part...someone else got 3rd. Mind blown.
running like she stolt it
Stole what?
Wow this is the sports and learning complex.
Crazy?? I'm the one crazy enough to click on this video. Nothing spectacular.
GREAT VIDEO...................
Crazy ? It happen in almost every race of both gender
Well that's nearly 8 minutes of my life I will never get back.
Wait why not 1600m?
Yonaseen my exact thoughts.
Yonaseen it’s because the IAAF wanted to round the mile to the closest number
Wow! That kick at the end! Yes girl!
click bait
barry nicholas no it’s not
The title states 'CRAZY FINISH' I'm still waiting for it.
It is to people who know this happens a lot. Especially with kids who are inexperienced with competition on their level. People who race know it isn't just run fast and beat everyone. If they raced against each other a few times it would be a completely different race.
Totally agree, there was nothing 'crazy' happening however, some of these comments are crazy funny, thanks for saving the day you funny peeps.

I ran a 17 second 100m when I was injured lmao
You must be from an unfit country if you’re one of the top athletes there, and if 12 year old girls are able to beat you.
If you have ever competed in mixed ability, open races, you'd know. If you haven't, you don't.
Really impressive from a 12 yrs old... I don't see anyone run like that in my country...
There should be a rule that if you are about to get lapped, you have to move to the outside of the track. Or drop out.
jeffw1267 that’s dumb
jeffw1267 it's not technically written in the rules but it is common courtesy to move to an outside lane
jeffw1267 what?
jeffw1267 that’s not a good rule if your lapped the person who lapped you just moves as if they were passing you in an open race anyway
It is kinda a rule to step aside, it’s just an unwritten rule that arrogant people don’t follow
Great race and a superbly times finish.
I might be doing a 1500m on the weekend and I've never done one and I have a sore leg and I have 4 competitions in the span of 8 days and I am going to explodeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Edit: phew I never got it but I got the 800m the next day :p
