Piece of cake. John Candy could have done it !! :)
Actually, from what I understand, the field is 53 yards wide. Each segment had to be done within 20 seconds. That means they had to complete one distance and back in 40 seconds and they did that 8 times. That would come out to 848 yards in 5 minutes and 20 seconds. Most can do that. Most people aren't 330 pounds though. Still, most football players should be able to do it. It's hardly the first time some 300+ pound lineman has failed one of these things. It happens every year in many camps. Pat Williams of Minnesota was held for a good week last year, I believe, because he wasn't in peak physical shape. Sorry Rastak. Not a rip. I'm just around here, and I that's the one I remember at the top of my head.
