From Record Holder to
Legacy Builder
The story of how a national champion chose mentorship over fame, creating a movement that transforms lives through disciplined training and earned confidence.
The Champion Who Chose to Build Champions
From 1995 to 1998, Amit Khanna was known as the Fastest Man of India. During this time, he broke the national record in the 100-metre sprint with a timing of 10.54 seconds—a moment that defined his journey as an athlete.
But for him, success on the track was never the end goal.
After his second comeback, a deeper thought stayed with him—how could he give back to the sport that gave him everything? He believed that real success lies in passing on knowledge, discipline, and belief to the next generation. His dream was simple yet powerful: to train young athletes to become strong, confident, and world-class competitors.
This dream led to the birth of Go Speed Sprint Academy in 2016.
Mr. Khanna has always loved being around children. With his energetic and friendly nature, he connects easily with young athletes, understands their struggles, and pushes them to do better—while always making them feel supported. Discipline, consistency, and respect form the heart of his coaching, but so does encouragement, care, and joy.
Under his guidance, children don't just train—they grow. They gain confidence, learn life lessons, and slowly begin to believe in themselves. Go Speed is not just an academy; it is a family built on passion, discipline, and the belief that every child has the potential to shine.
"Real success lies in passing on knowledge, discipline, and belief to the next generation."
— Amit Khanna, Founder, GO Speed Sprint Academy
