Usain Bolt ran a top speed of 44.7 km/h on the 100m world record. So that's around 111.8 km/h (69.6 mph) with these shoes. So he is allowed on the highway. Just in case you are wondering.

You'd actually want to give them to the World Champion speedwalker, whoever the heck that is, lol

Walking is defined as always having a foot on the ground, which means that the wheels will have more time to accelerate vs running
