re: Could you run a quarter mile in under a minute, Ocho Cincos 10 yr old did it

These are my facts:
in high school on the track team, I was 49 second 400 m, or quarter mile.
IF I train now, I'm in my 40's, I MAY could get it down to 1:20.
My guess is this:
Guys over 30:
5% could run 1 minute quarter mile or could quickly train for it.
5% could train for months and get there.
20% could get somewhat close, maybe 1:10-1:20 with a lot of training
and 70% would start off running it and by halfway around the track will quit running, say "frick this shite", and never go near a track again.
