In a remarkable display of athletic prowess, seven-year-old Dakota White from the Dallas area has been hailed as the “fastest kid in the nation” after setting a new national record. Competing at the AAU Junior Olympics with her teammates from the Xpress Track Club, she helped her relay team break the record in the girls’ eight and under 100-meter relay.
The team’s impressive performance culminated in a record-breaking time of 59.08 seconds, securing their national title. Dakota, who began training at age three with her father, a former TCU wide receiver, has gained national attention for her incredible speed and dedication to the sport. Her motto is “no days off,” a testament to her hard work and commitment.
This accomplishment not only solidifies her place in track and field history but also serves as an inspiration to young athletes across the country.
