How fast can you run the 40 yard dash? My best time is 6:34 seconds, whats yours?

Who the hell knows?  I haven't had anyone time me running 40 yards since college.

Best time in high school was 4.85.  After playing 2 years (freshman and JV) as a Defensive lineman, the Varsity coach turned me into a Running back on the first day of Varsity practice after seeing my time.........lucky me spent the NEXT 2 years going both ways. I was 6'3" 240, he didn't want to give me up on Defense.

Today?  I would be happy with anything with a 6 in front of it.

My HS coach timed me twice and I did a 4.6.

Hmm... probably would have to use a sun dial on a geologic time scale to measure my time.

Last time I ran the 40 was for JV Football 13 years ago: 5.4 was my best.

I'm a slow-ass white boy.

Do you want me alive or dead at the 40 yrd mark?

As I said in the other thread,

If we're running away from a bear, you'd be safe.



Unless the bear reads arfcom and decides to "get both"

Uh, I'm not sure where this is going, but routine 4.4's in high school, usually 10.75 - 10.9 in 100meters.  Sixteen years later I feel pretty confident about being well under 5. 0  I'm not worried about many people catching me or being able to run away from me though.

Their seems to be a lot of fast guys around here. Or I am just slower than I thought. Go Vols!

Forty yards, too short for me, I dont even bother with anything less than a mile. I did 2.5 miles in 17:44 lastb week.

Got out of high school about 37 years ago.  Don't even remember running the 40 yard dash.  Checked 6 seconds or more cause thats the last one.  The "more" would be the right answer.
