This Adorable 8-Year-Old Fitness Enthusiast Raced Usain Bolt And Won

This fearless kid is the only motivation you need.

Usain Bolt, Olympic gold medalist and fastest man on earth, is no match for eight-year-old Demarjay Smith -- the cutest and youngest fitness trainer ever.

Smith, a Jamaican native, was invited to join "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" Tuesday after a video of him training his friend and brother gained more than 500,000 views on YouTube. While on the show, Smith challenged Bolt to a race. Host Ellen DeGeneres asked him if he thinks he would win a race against Bolt, Smith said in response, "Yeah, 100 percent!"

Moments later, Bolt came onto the stage to surprise the young fitness enthusiast and to accept his challenge. While it was definitely a close race, the future track star, Smith ultimately defeated the gold medalist.

Smith told DeGeneres that he only recently started working out. And his daily workout regimen is pretty impressive. He says it includes completing 60 pushups in the morning, 30 pushups in the afternoon and providing fitness training to other kids.

"I go around the neighborhood and I look to see if kids like exercising," he said. "I see that other kids bully them so that's why I started exercising, so I don't get bullied and I have a cousin who was bullied about his size and his weight so I had to do something about it."
