for Rin it's not matter of body fitness tho, it's matter of half assed martial arts mastery called Baji Quan vs Urobuchi special Super Baji Quan. It's the Martial Arts that it's master are hailed as "No second fist is necessary" while Kirei doesn't quite reached that territory his is plenty lethal that if it were Kirei instead of Rin who hit Medea the battle might be settled right there.. well but you need to corner Medea with magecraft first tho so it's impossible for Kirei that's why he ran away instead, then again he managed to run away from Medea and Archer.. that's a superhuman feat.

Even old Kirei are still capable of doing impossible feats like running through the forest carrying Illya while being chased by Assassin which is in no way a slow class and to avoid spoiler you know what he did later right? He might be weaker compared to his younger self but he's still no pushover either. In the end the distinction fell between how much decline are we talking about here, and from what HF shown us he's still capable of doing defensive fight against Assassin head on even at old age so I don't see why he can't take Da Vinci by complete surprise attack. I mean it's E rank endurance so she's just at the level of a rather tough human similar to Tamamo, Shakespeare, Dumas and Andersen, they're servant that often get remark like "Can be beaten even by normal human"

of course that's assuming that it's just kirei and not Rasputin in Kirei body.. if it's Rasputin then it's natural to be able to pierce Da Vinci..
