I watched Captain America The Winter Soldier today, and at the beginning of the movie Steve Rogers(Captain America) is shown running really fast all over the place. Then after he finishes the run his friend say that Steve ran 13 miles in 30 minutes, doing a little math that's 2:18 pace. If that's just an easy run for Steve, how fast would he be from say 800m up to the marathon assuming he had equal speed and endurance?
Haha i had equal interest finding out this even though it isn't real!
Captain America's friend the Hulk can cover 13 miles in a just a few strides.
He does 4.2 for the football forty, same as everyone.
Steve Rogers was the first man to run sub 4

I know right? lol
It makes sense. 2:18 would be a nice and easy pace for someone whose mile time is ~1:20.
Steve Rogers was also the first to achieve the marathon holy grail by posting a sub 2 hour time shattering the record of mere mortals, and he did it right after saving the world from a diabolic tyrant.

Speaking of Rupp, how long does it take until Salazar finds that serum they gave Captain American in the 1940s? I mean even Salazar doesn't have those kind of PEDs.
@Kevin52, Cap is 95 years old according to Captain America The Winter Solider. He was born some time in 1918. So if you find a 95 year old running well under world records it might be him.
None of his records are legit, he's a doper.
Rupp?

this^^ That serum made him a superhero and therefore he is doped to the gills. His times don't count.

The same could be said for users of altitude tents and runners with TUEs.

Nonsense. He doped one time in 1942. As a first time offender, he's subject to a two year ban, retroactive to the time he got caught. He's been eligible for almost 70 years.
