edit: h.s. record 60m sprint and bionic tuck jump:

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzZw56HZCi4" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzZw56HZCi4</a>


Only vid I could find. He does some hops in it that are crazy springy and you can tell he's not even trying that hard. He looks like he shot out of a cannon at the start and his reaction time is insane.

6.27 is pretty fast!!! haha yea seen that vid 2 but forgot where it was...anyway, i wish adarqui had the style he did, did you check the hat on the way it? classic man..if you dress like that you know your gonna win

and what's with the younger look alike right next to him??

i herd that the dude pulled his hamstrings and that's what caused him to have to drop out

i wish i had an indoor track like that near me in the winter so i could run an open meet like that 1..i mean i knew i could at least beat the grandpa without blocks on the far left

WTF , freak of nature!
I read in youtube comments that he hasnt even lifted?
And how about that jump in the beginning , he takes just one step and gets heels to chest height. That would be 45+ without even trying! Shit...
Target training paces (min/km), calculated from 5K PR 22:49 :
Easy run : 5:48
Tempo run : 4:50
VO2-max run :4:21
Speed form run : 4:02

---

it's the biggest trick in the run game.. go slow to go fast. it doesn't make sense until it smacks you in the face and you're like ....... wtf?

it made me think..hearing the way this guy trained...just by running 60m in his backyard...makes you wonder if there is a guy out there who is doing the same thing and is just a freak but is unknown

in the internet age, it just doesn't happen anymore.. even freak dunkers who keep to themselves cannot hide from becoming internet sensations.. speed is even less likely to remain hidden, since if you're freak fast, you can really go places and do some big things.

the only way you'd have freaks go unnoticed is if they are in piss poor war-like countries, or they die early from something.
