If this guy works out and is in OK shape, you're [censored].

Re: Prop bet: 5.2 mile run
[ QUOTE ]
maybe he can run an 8 or 9 minute single mile. when he's on mile number 4 and 5, its gonna be about 14-15 minutes [/ QUOTE ] I think you're underestimating how slow 14-15 minutes per mile is. This is a comfortable WALK. Unless he has a heart attack of shreds a hamstring, he should be able to do this easily.

Re: Prop bet: 5.2 mile run
[ QUOTE ]
with no training i think I ran a 6.5-7 min mile in 9th grade without much work. this is an easy bet for anyone who isn't horribly out of shape.. [/ QUOTE ] I am assuming he is sedentary other than his 1/2 hour of frat curls 3x a week. If he does a little running each week or some other form of cardio you'd be screwed. BTW I could get up and run 1 mile is <8 minutes now. No chance of running the next mile in <10 though. He'll hit "the wall" very quickly if he doesn't run at all.

[censored], I bet I could walk 5 miles in an hour [/ QUOTE ] Somebody should take you up on this bet. You're most likely horribly wrong here. The only way the OP's bet could be close if "in pretty good shape" just means "not fat." If the guy does any kind of vaguely cardiovascular exercise ever then this shouldn't be too bad.

[/ QUOTE ] 1/2 hour of frat curls 3x times a week sums up his exercise habits. pretty sure he hasnt ran a mile or done anything close to that in about 8 years.

OP, are you taking any more prop bets? i'll give you even money for 1k bets on any of these: - i can breathe 60 times in 3 minutes - i can watch braveheart in under 5 hours - i can float in a swimming pool for 20 seconds
