40 yard sprint?

Question

i had to do the 40 yard sprint today for gym and i got 5.5..is that good?

Answer 1

sure thats decent. depends how old you are and how much training you've had.

i do about a 4.8s when i run my 100meter.

4.8 might sound fast to you, but i've been training for 2 years and thats as fast as i can go (so far ;) ) i hope to do 4.7 by the end of my senior year

(oh and when a kid tells you he runs a sub 4.5 in highshool he is b.s.)

Answer 2

its okay, it has room for improvement, but with some more work it can easily drop into the 4 seconds
