What could Sly Stallone run for the mile during his prime shape rocky days?

Preposterous I don't think he could complete a mile running.

Also he'd get DQd for PEDs.

Would pay to see race between Stallone, Steven Seagal, and VanDamme.

They can't even walk properly.

Right now? I'd bet on the defibrillator.

What ever he could do he could not pass a drug test after or get an erection without his pump

rocky does the Phil museum art steps:

72 steps approx 70 meters in 9.5 seconds (not counting his sprint to the steps where he is clearly moving faster - from run with kids on video) that about 54 second 400

or 7.36842105 meters per second

1609.344 meters per mile

so 218.41 seconds to do a mile means 3:38.41 mile ... UPHILL!!!!

would he maintain that pace for a mile? no

for the mcmillan calculator lets use 400 meters and say that Stallone could do

20% slower than 54 so that has him at 65.14 second 400m

Mcmillan puts him at 5:17 mile

attack away

but remember this: Sly did it in Converse high tops, he is the man

I confirmed these calculations with a TI-83, so it must be correct.

The question has been answered.

I could do 4:45. Sly could not.

I would whoop both your lily white arses, mofo.

4:30. How do I know that Sly ran a 4:30 in his rocky days? That's easy. Everyone ran a 4:30 mile in their rocky days.

I think it all depends really on what he was training for. Here's how I think his career would play out:

Rocky 1 - 5:50 - running on 100% heart, youth is on his side

Rocky 2 - 5:40 - in chicken chasin' shape, goes 15 rounds, so he has some stamina

Rocky 3 - 6:15 does some intervals with Apollo, but they're too late to get him back under 6 mpm

Rocky 4 - 5:30, you can't defeat Mother Russia with anything other than a PR.

Rocky 5 - 7:00 - brain damage has ruined his motor skills, outside stress effects his recovery rates.

Rocky Balboa - 10:00, on a good day. Still has the heart, but his legs are gone.

Creed/Creed2 - Rocky is a hobby jogger

I have to disagree on you with Rocky 3... He was quick and super light on his feet and was getting plenty of cardio in with the swimming. 5:19.

Basing this guess on his homoerotic run against/with Apollo on the beach in Rocky 3, but I'd say 5:23. He has decent leg turnover, and good closing speed, but I think those middle laps would grind at him.

CLOSE! Excellent effort here. If only you had remembered to factor in that most important factor, LEG SPEED VELOCITY you would have nailed it.

5:40.07

I saw an interview with Stallone once and this topic did come up. Stallone stated that he was 'pretty fast' when he was training for the Rocky films. He said he could bread 10 minutes for the mile. He emphasized the fact that it was a 'real' mile and not a 'metric' mile (kilometer). The interviewer was very impressed with his 'speed'. Stallone graciously accepted the praise/adulation but stated that he didn't think he was in the kind of shape anymore.

He was probably loafing.

He's a sprinter. They talk. They all talk.They say; "I could've..."

Sprinters say stupid things like "Why not run the first lap really fast and come up behind the field?" You can't take anyone serious, who runs a lap and sits down for two hours.

No way in hell he breaks 6.

Get the man some real running shoes and proper attire and maybe he could push 5.

I love how he has a sweat pattern on his chest when the kids first join him and then the NEXT scene running by the water there is no sweat pattern.

Rossi Stallone Typical philly sweat pattern

Maybe people exaggerate.

I would say 10 minutes at his best, maybe once in his life.

You also can't take seriously anyone who says things like, "you can't take anyone serious . . ."
