Quincy Wilson, an 12-year-old from Chesapeake, Virginia, dropped a 51.78 second 400 meter race on Friday during the first day of adidas Indoor Nationals in Virginia Beach. 

It marked an amazing improvement from his previous performance on the Virginia Beach Sports Center track in December, when the Track 757 athlete authored a time of 56.36 at the VA Beach Club Opener.

As far as records are concerned, though, Wilson still has some room to grow. But he does at least compare to the current USATF age 11-12 record holder Bryce Love, who posted a time of 50.75 seconds in 2009. Love graduated Wake Forest (NC) High School in 2015.
