Not near what it used to be in high school but I think I could shotgun one in about 15 seconds.

At 40, I pay people to run the 40 for my entertainment so that I don't have to do it myself.

Plus, there are very few situations where I'd be running and need to be faster than everyone. Just being faster than SOMEONE would be enough.

Just had my son time me in the front yard. Ran a 5.0. Not bad for a 42 year old

What we talking? Yards or pumps?

Yards-No idea.
Pumps-Approximately 15 seconds.

We have to time all the HOA patrol applicants here as part of our agreement with the State Police and the DOD.

I’ve seen some 40 year olds with sub 5 seconds times. Others, not so much.

I run a 4.9 but 40 feet isn’t really a good measure of fitness.

The day Ponamsky simultaneously broke a collar bone and pulled a hamstring, Gordy Rush ran a 4.6-4.7.

Les yelled at him: I need you at linebacker!

Gordy was in his mid 40s when he ran that day.

I’m close to 40 and would like to know my 40 time. But I don’t have any friends and my wife just laughs at me when I ask her to time me. She thinks it would take me longer to run a 40 then I last in the bedroom.

I’d probably run a 4.9-5.1 now.

Still slow.
