Okay, so the other day I was scrolling through sports news, and I saw something about Simone Biles and a 40-yard dash. I was like, “Wait, what? Simone Biles? The gymnast?” I gotta see this.
I’m a huge fan of Simone Biles. Her skills are just mind-blowing, so my first thought was just to see if there was any real data, I figured maybe there was a video, or some actual numbers out there.
Digging for Information
First, I hit up Google. Just typed in “Simone Biles 40-yard dash time” and…well, not much concrete info. Lots of articles talking about it, but not a lot of solid, verifiable times.
Then I checked out YouTube. I figured if there was a video, it’d be there. I found a few videos that mentioned it, usually in the context of comparing her to other athletes, or just general speculation. Nothing official, nothing I could really trust.
The Reality Check
After spending a good chunk of time searching, I came to the conclusion that there probably isn’t a publicly available, official 40-yard dash time for Simone Biles. It’s probably something she might have done in training, for fun, or maybe even just mentioned offhand, but it’s not like she’s an NFL prospect getting officially timed.
It makes sense. Gymnastics is about explosive power, agility, and precision – not necessarily straight-line speed over 40 yards. It’s a completely different kind of athleticism. It’d be like asking a marathon runner to do a powerlifting competition – they’re both impressive, but in totally different ways.
Even though I want to figure out the answer so badly, I failed to find it.
