What is the slowest running speed?
As somewhat similar to the Fastest Running Speed question, I'm curious what the slowest running speed possible would be.
I've been thinking a Soldier at crouching speed, moving backwards, while getting pelted by bullets from a Natascha.
Is there something slower than this?
Best Answer
Yes there is something slower as a matter of fact. The same thing as a HEAVY while spinning his mini gun.

How slow is too slow for running?
Don't go slower than 60% of your max HR--that is to slow (and that is truly slow). Keep your stride frequency around 180 per minute, even at 9:00 miles. Your stride length will be shorter than a walk stride length, but you WILL be running, albeit slowly.Is running 5 mph too slow?
Now, all that said, here is a general guideline on treadmill speeds: for most people 2 to 4 mph will be a walking speed; 4 to 5 mph will be a very fast walk or jog; and anything over 5 mph will be jogging or running.What is a slow jog speed?
This running-to-the-light pace is usually about 4.3 miles per hour, according to the authors. They recommend starting very slow \u2014 perhaps at about 2 to 3 miles per hour. If you are too short of breath to, for example, hold a conversation, then ease up.Is it OK to be a slow runner?
Running is the same no matter how fast or slow you are That's the beauty of our sport. There is no difference between the runner who breaks 30 minutes for the 5k for the first time and the one that breaks 16 minutes. Both worked hard, sacrificed to achieve their goal, and experienced the same challenges.How To Run Faster - 3 Types of Speed Work
