[ light laughter ] give people the idea of -- of how fast -- your speed. how fast are you running at your fastest? >> i'd say 26 miles per hour. so if i ran in a school zone, i'd get a ticket. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: but that's -- but as a sprinter, you can't, like, rev up to 26 -- you have to start at 26 miles an hour. >> no, you don't have to start, but you've got to be dang close, you know? if you are starting at 5 miles per hour i'm going to assure you, everybody gonna run away from you. >> jimmy: yeah. i mean, you just -- but you just go -- your muscles are just ready to go. >> yeah.

i'm putting about -- so, if you've watched track, you know we use blocks when we first start. >> jimmy: yeah. >> i'm putting more than 300 pounds of force into those blocks. >> jimmy: wow. that's insane. and you got into this through your parents? >> well, both of my parents, they ran. but they were not the reason that we got into it. in fact, when we were younger, they tried to get us into track, and my brother -- we were probably about 5, 6-years-old, and my brother after the coach tells him to go run, is like, "you're not my daddy!" [ laughter ] >> jimmy: what? >> and my parents said, "okay, yeah, no. it's too young. it's too young." >> jimmy: too young for this, yeah, exactly, no, yeah. but then when did you get the -- the bug and go, like, "i think we can do this?" >> you know, i started -- i got in by high jump. so, i was high jumping for a a few years, and me and my brother, we went to the junior olympics. it's basically like nationals for age group track. >> jimmy: yeah. >> and it was 2012, and guess what was going on at that time? 2012 olympics. >> jimmy: yeah.

>> opening ceremonies, you know? you're watching allyson felix go down, and we're, like, "you know what? i think -- i think we can make the olympics." >> jimmy: you -- but you just think like that? >> well my brother thought it. to be honest, my brother thought it. well, at the same time, you know? we were surrounded by a lot of olympians. >> jimmy: yeah. >> we were very close to the clark family. jearl miles clark, hazel clark, joetta clark, even their, you know, joetta's daughter, they're all olympians. you know? >> jimmy: so, you go, "this is a possible -- this is a dream that's possible." >> oh, definitely. like, at the time, i thought, you know, becoming an olympian was like getting your driver's license. >> jimmy: oh, my gosh. [ laughter ] >> you know, it's just something, if you want it, you can go get it. >> jimmy: but, man, oh, man, did you realize how much work it was gonna be? >> oh, of course. definitely. >> jimmy: you did? >> i did. eventually.

you know, in 2016, you know, me and my brother were seniors in high school, and we went to the trials, and, you know, i got fourth. so, i was one place away from making the team. so, technically i was an alternate, but you usually don't like to count it. you usually want the whole thing, you know? >> jimmy: do you get nervous for the trials? now people can watch the trials on nbc and peaco*ck. >> yeah, you guys are going to watch, right? >> jimmy: yeah.
