Can the outside of an huge circle reach the speed of light?

Julesoby
Hello,
I'm 14 years old and haven't had a lot of physics so please don't say my question is dumb.
If you spin a circle the inside travels less distance in the same time the outside does. If you have a really big cirlce can the outside reach the speed of light? I've read somewhere nothing can go faster then the speed of light, so probably this doesn't works, but why? Thanks for your time.
