What is a good time for someone in good shape to run 100 feet? Taking off from a dead stop, accelerating to top speed, and reaching the 100 foot mark?
A male in good/average shape (Not "KILLER shape"😉, should be able to run 100 metres in around 14 seconds. That's the average time. That's 7.14 metres a second.
100 feet at 7.14 metres per second would take four seconds.
That means that you would be doing six metres per second if what you NOW say is true. So you would have a theoretical 100 metres time, again, of 16 seconds. That's five seconds slower than your original speed when you first made the claim.
You've conveniently remembered something that shaves five seconds off your potential sprint time.
If there's one thing I know about you, it's that you like to revel in your glories. If you actually did 100 feet in five seconds, you'd have remembered it and made that claim first. You didn't, you said 94 feet in six. That's not a rough guess, that's specific numbers and dimensions. I'm sorry, but I'm gonna call you a blatant liar if you expect me to believe you.
