Nothing can be physically infinite.
The universe is not infinite.
There are no parallel universes.
Just stop.

But then you don't know that he was fast enough to catch up in the first place.

Infinity is an abstract mathematical concept. When there is infinity in a real life equation (physics), there is something wrong: you failed your maths, you don't know each parameters, you don't understand what you are doing

OK, but pi doesn't exist. Nothing can have an infinite number of digits.

For that matter, 3 doesn't exist. There are no 3's floating out there in the universe. There are groups of 3 stars or 3 hydrogen atoms, but there is no singular abstract 3.

So if 3 doesn't exist, does it not exist in the same sense that infinity doesn't exist?

Here's the final statement on this topic which cuts to it's core:

PLATONISM is true you coping fucking retards.
Mathematical objects objectively exist and are non spatio-temporal.
Something being real does NOT MEAN it must be physical.
If you disagree, you are not intelligent.

Three cups of coffee exist, but show me a 3 floating around out there by itself.

There are different types of infinities. What are we talking about here?
There are infinite numbers between 0 and 1.
