Candace Hill: The fastest girl on the planet – ever [VIDEO]

 

ou could be forgiven for thinking Candace Hill was a seasoned professional athlete.

Watching her run, you’d assume she’d been a part of the international track and field circuit for years.

Her lengthy strides and frightening speed are reminiscent of Usain Bolt. And so are her winning margins — she leaves everyone else on the track in her wake.

But Hill is still in high school, as becomes immediately apparent as I introduce myself.

She seems nervous. It is her first major television interview, and she isn’t entirely sure what to expect. She is courteous and well mannered, but clearly shy and overwhelmed.

As I try to make small talk, her coach Venson Elder chimes in, “I keep telling her she’d better get used to this,” Elder says. “It’s going to be happening a lot soon.”
