Track & Field: The Goat
Darius Swift spent twenty-two years in a body that wouldn't move.
Paralyzed from the neck down since a childhood accident and battling muscular dystrophy, his world was confined to a care facility bed. But his mind ran free, studying every stride, every split, every technique of the sport he could never participate in: track and field.
His life ends watching Quincy Hall's legendary comeback in the 2024 Olympic 400m final. No family. No farewell. Just a flatline during the moment Hall collapsed in triumph on the track.
But death isn't the finish line.
Awakening in a void of pure consciousness, Darius is offered something impossible: a second chance. The Greatest Of All Time System appears before him, shaped by his deepest desires and fueled by twenty-two years of dedication to a sport he could only watch.
Given the opportunity to be reborn with the potential to become the GOAT in any athletic discipline, his choice is instant. Track and Field. Specifically, the sprint events, 100m, 200m, and 400m. The purest expression of human speed and the ultimate test of pushing through pain.
Armed with a perfect body, a system designed to forge legends, and the unbreakable mental fortitude of someone who survived two decades of suffering, Darius is reborn as a child.
This time, he won't just watch from the sidelines.
This time, he'll feel the blocks under his feet, the burn in his legs during the final hundred, and the joy of collapsing on the track after giving everything.
This time, he'll run, and he'll become the Greatest Of All Time.
