Simple answer. No - don't use 'de'.

You can say either:

'la homo kuranta rapide estas mia frato' or
'la homo kiu rapide kuras (tie) estas mia frato.'

I think I remember reading somewhere that relative clauses (starting with kiu/kio/kia) are not used in certain languages. However they are extremely common in most European languages and in Esperanto.

And if you want you could even say "La rapide kuranta homo estas mia frato". So long as you keep things together, e.g. adjectives and their adverbs, nouns and their adjectives, it works
