It takes about 1/4 mile for a really fast horse to hit maximum speed...\nSome pretty incredible speeds have been attributed to gaited horses, crediting them with hitting 40 and even 50 miles per hour (m.p.h.), Let's consider some verifiable records.\nMarch 5, 1989. Racing on a dirt track at Santa Anita racetrack in California, a Thoroughbred named Ruhlmann, age four, carrying a jockey and saddle weight of 118 pounds, ran one mile in one minute, 33.4 seconds (1:33.4 minutes)That represents an average speed, from a standing start, of 38.54 m.p.h.\nMarch 1, 1997. Racing on a faster grass track at Santa Anita, a Thoroughbred named Atticus, age five, carrying 117 pounds, ran one mile in 1:31.8 minutes, averaging an even faster speed of 39.21 m.p.h...Sprinting Speeds\n\nLet's now consider the American Quarter Horse, specifically the sprinting race horse. After generations of being bred to sprint, a good one can chew up 350 yards of track in about 17.72 seconds. [Reference 2] That's a sprinting speed of 40.40 m.p.h. Some have been clocked at 45 m.p.h. Now that's a "burst of speed" from an equine athlete bred to do one thing really well... sprint!....\nSpeed in Trot and Pace\nLet's move on to gaits that have similar (though slower than a gallop) locomotion to our own gaited horses. Keep in mind that a trotter (two-beat, diagonal gait) and a pacer (two-beat, lateral gait) have only two beats to concentrate on. A gaited horse (four distinct hoof beats somewhere between a dead trot and a dead pace) has twice as much to regulate. That's why it is harder for a gaited horse to accurately maintain the gaits required by their breed standard.\n\nLet's look at an interesting trotting fact. The Standardbred harness racing stallion, Pineship, at four years old, trotting an average speed of 32.43 m.p.h., set a new world record of 1:51.00. His time reads T4T 1:51:00M.\n\nHere is another juicy little tidbit, this time from a harness pacer. Cambest, a five-year-old Standardbred stallion blistered the track at an average speed of 33.89 m.p.h., setting a new world pace record. His time reads P5T1:46.1/5M.

Sprints between two points as fast as you can run.

It depends on the persons VO2 Max (how efficiently your body metabolizes oxygen in the blood).  A ten minute mile should be a fair jog but easily attainable for most, a five minute mile however is near impossible for (my guess) 98% of Americans.  An average one mile (sprint) for an average runner I believe is in the 7:30 minutes to 6:30 minutes range with some training of course.\n\nFor example I ran the Los Angeles Marathon (26.2 miles) and on my first attempt I finished 7,688 out of 25,000 and my average mile time was over 10:00 minutes per mile.  Less than 5% of all Americans will ever run a Marathon.

run in a zigzag fashion to escape them. Their spines are not flexible enough for them to take corners well enough to keep up. In a straight line however, for short distances, they can easily attain 35-40 mph!

about 186,000 miles per second.  With our present technology, it would take hundreds of thousands of years. At the speed of light, it would only take thousands of years.

World Record holder of the 100 meter dash was estimated to be running at about 23 mph.

Well like Athletics, there are different people for different distance, so we will presume you mean fastest sprinters. Some swimmers can maintain a high speed over a longer distance, while, obviously the sprinters get the total highest speed.\nAlexander Popov (russia) 50m mens record \nInge Debruin (Netherlands) 50m womens record

Tigers can run about 35 miles per hour (56 kph) — roughly as fast as bears and lions. They reach such speeds only over short distances (about 10 yards, 10 m) during the attack.

A quote from the web site below:\n"On land, Alligators are not capable of running faster than a slow human, top speed is probably between 10 and 15 miles per hour. There is a commonly repeated myth about alligators being able to move at 35 or 40 miles per hour, but this is not true. If you want to learn all about Alligators and their relatives, visit The Crocodilian Biology Database."\n\nHope that helps,\n\nm

A miler, running at 4:00 pace, is running 15mph.\n\nThe world record for 100m is 9.77, that's 10.24 m/sec or about 22.9 mph.\n\nThe world best for the marathon is 2:04:55 which is about 12.6 mph.\n\nA brisk walk is 4 mph.

24,759 mph\n\nApollo 10: World’s fastest manned spacecraft\nIn May, 1969, returning from a dress rehearsal for the first moon landing, Tom Stafford, John Young and Eugene Cernan rode the command module of Apollo 10 as it entered the atmosphere at a steeper angle than any other spaceship before or since. Their top speed of 25,000 mph is the fastest any human has ever traveled.

They ran for 20 mph for 1 minute. In this time, they covered 1/3 of a mile. This means that for the other 9 2/3 miles, they ran at 35 mph.\nThis means their time for that part was 29/105 hours. Add in the 1 minute to get 29/105 + 1/60 to get 41/140 hours as their time. We take 10 divided by this to get their average speed, which is 1400/41 mph, which is approximately 34.14634146 mph.

The average marathon is about 3.5-4 hours. Marathon runners have to pace themselves so they don't die, and still some do die. The record time set for marathon wasn't done by a man who sprinted.\n\nHe would be hard pressed to sprint top-speed for 40 minutes even if he was a super athlete.
