Sure, but a grenade is still, unless its super light weight or there is below earth gravity, not going to be able to be thrown 50m by a human with just his arm.

On a perfect day in perfect condition, you might be able to get 100 feet on a grenade. While soldiers might be in good condition, they're not going to be in perfect condition. especially if they've been in active combat for any length of time.

But what if you are a Space Marine?

Space Marines can probably throw them a few kilometers

Running 50 meters in a matter of seconds is super-athletic, if not entirely superhuman.

How much exactly is "a matter of seconds"
School grades in germany for 17-18yo for 50m sprint: 6.5s excellent ; 6.9 good ; 7.4 average (meets the requirements) ; 8.0 (barely) acceptable ; 8.4 and worse = fail
It IS a matter of seconds.
