Thomas Tyner: Unstoppable High School Football Star and Record-Breaking

Thomas Tyner held the five fastest 100-meter times in Oregon high school history, running faster than future Olympian Ryan Bailey had at the same age. That track speed translated directly to his running back duties at Aloha High School in Portland.

A hamstring injury forced Tyner to miss the state track championships and affected his football performance, teaching him a hard lesson about body maintenance. He responded with a rigorous training regimen, determined to reach his potential in both sports without letting injuries derail his trajectory again.
