Well, then allow me to provide my own personal "limited scientific evidence".

I was a decent high school sprinter. Made it to the state finals. Pretty good for high school. But that's all. No more.

Comparatively, my times in the sprint races were at, or better, than the world record, for women.

So, essentially an average state level sprinter would be winning Olympic gold medals running in a women's race.

To be fair to yourself, you should probably give yourself a lot more credit. If you were running 10.5s in highschool, you were far far above any average high school sprinter. You easily could have gotten a track scholarship somewhere if you wanted.

You ran faster than 10.49 and 21.34 in high school? That's way better than "pretty good".
