please log in to view this image Cow Speed! How fast do cows run? (A partial answer) One question that has bothered us and a number of visitors (UTR's) is: How fast can a cow run? Well, we have a partial answer. Michigan State University held a number of cow races. The race rules require each cow to have a saddle and a rider. The race distance is one mile. The results can be found atcowrace.com. The fastest cow time was in 2003. Little Witch ran the track in 7 minutes, 31.54 seconds. That translates into about 8 miles per hour (12.8 km/hour). Not especially fast. A human who runs a 4-minute mile is faster. http://www.crazyforcows.com/fow/how-fast-do-cows-run.shtml
Here is a cow race from the annual world championship cow grand prix incase you'v never been to one... It looks like in this race the red flag Ferrari cow has the best set up for this track...
