It's physically impossible to get from Fish Creek to Chinook in 5 minutes on the C-Train. Calgary Transit's website shows it as a 12 minute trip. There's no way you're doing it in less than half that time.
Evergreen to Chinook is about 10km (depending on where in Evergreen you're starting from), so if you average a km/minute (60km/h) and didn't hit any red lights, you could make the drive in 10 minutes.
I live in Kingsland, just south of Chinook, and have a sister who lives in Millrise, so I have made that drive many times, and it usually takes 15-20 minutes if there's traffic (and the only time there isn't traffic is late at night - after the mall is closed - or Christmas morning). If they ever make Macleod Trail free-flowing at Southland and Heritage, like they did at Canyon Meadows and Anderson, then the 10 minute trip might be more common.
