I'm going to do this test today at the gym and see what my time is. I'm betting I can get in under 8 minutes.
Unless you're a runner you're full of shite. A mile and a half in under 8 minutes is damned strong running.

About 7.2 mph for a full mile. That'll get you under 8 minutes. You don't have to be a "runner" to hit that but you have to be somewhat regularly active...and not a lard arse.

I consider myself in decent shape but I know for a fact I couldn't do 1.5 miles in 13 min. I would imagine this would be the factor weeding out a number of the applicants.

He's completely full of shite. Probably one of those guys who sits in the locker room bullshitting for 20 minutes, then heads for the pool where he knocks out a couple laps before hitting up the sauna for more bullshitting. Then 20 more minutes in the locker room before grabbing a power bar and a Gatorade on the way out.
An 8 minute 1.5 mile run is close to a 5 minute mile pace.

You're 100% right. I was doing the math in my head for 1 mile, not 1.5. Still, I think sub-10 minutes is doable.

When I was in, 3 miles was done under 18 minutes. Had to do 20 pull ups under 2 minutes and 80 sit ups under two minutes.
Freaking pussies kids now.
Go ahead and play some more video games, fat fricks.
