Okay, so I saw this question online about how fast Tyreek Hill is, and I got curious. I mean, we all know he’s blazing fast, but how fast exactly? So I decided to do a little digging and, well, see for myself.
My Deep Dive into Tyreek Hill’s Speed
First, I just started searching around. I wanted to get a sense of what his “official” speed was. And there it was, a number popped up!
23.24 miles per hour!
I found out, he hit this speed back in 2016. Man, that’s wild! It makes sense though. Every time I watched him play, just burned past everyone.
I needed to put this into perspective. I mean, 23.24 mph…what does that even mean? So, I thought about my own (pathetic) attempts at running.
- I tried to sprint all-out on a treadmill. Couldn’t even get close! The machine wouldn’t let me.I set the highest of 12mph.
- Then, I went outside, found a stretch of road, and tried to just run as fast as I could for, like, 10 seconds. No way I was hitting anything close to 23 mph, felt more like barely jogging.
So, yeah, I tried. And failed. Miserably. It really hit home just how unbelievably fast this guy is. It’s one thing to read the number, but to feel the difference…that’s something else. It’s clear I’ll never catch Tyreek Hill, not even if he was walking backward!
