A more accurate analogy would be that you or others want to run 'my boy' against hypothetical boys that you claim can run at the speed of light, not real competitiors just hypothetical ones you made up for the sake or argumentation. Then because I refuse to run my boy against hypothetical boys you claim my argument is logically invalid.
Actually, since your boy is hypothetical as well, the analogy is still valid.
