I'm assuming that this is going to make a homepage somewhere, so I'm
going to be picky.

Recalculated average running speed, including athletics succeses;

-Althletics success test(TN4), 4 successes, average effective quickness 
-Runs one action per turn (16x3 meters)
-Moves three remaining actions (3x16 meters)

Equals 96 meters per combat turn, or 115.2 kph (on average!!)

He can run after (and catch) a Dodge Scoot or Jackrabbit.

> Combat: 7

Being picky again, (12+8+3)/2 = 12.5

> Ares High-Velocity Assault Rifle with Laser Sight and (4)

Sure it's fast enough for him?

> BMW Blitzen 2050

This sure ain't *grin*

As an aside, does anyone want to speculate on the oxygen debt his body
would have to pay after he ran for a combat turn?? Think of how an
olympic sprinter looks after running 100m and multiply the effect by
about 16. Heart failure, anyone?

Like to see him stop in a hurry, too..... The only man known to pulp
himself by running into a wall.
