Apparently people lie on national television about their running speed:

A quick Google search to compare her alleged 22 MPH to Usain Bolt's 100 m top speed shows that she would be right there with Usain.
Bolt's average speed over the course of his 2009 Berlin 100 m race was 37.58 km/h or 23.35 mph.
"22 miles an hour for 5 seconds".
Um, no.
Hollywood people are delusional by nature. Delusion is a pretequisite for them.
She probably ran at 22 for 5 seconds. But it was 22kph not mph. She's a moron.
5 mph for 22 seconds
Doesn't know kms from miles.

This happens with a lot of people every day who are no where near professional athletes-

It's amazing that we now have an entire generation who believes that what they "google" supplants reality.
You're an idiot.
Check out that form. You can't tell me she's not going at least 20 right here:

I provided evidence that the actress's claim isn't unreasonable showing several other people who are not top athletes able to run at a high speed for a few seconds as it's not all that hard to do with some training. I cannot verify that she did in-fact run at those speeds but just showing that it's at least plausible. How did I supplant reality? How is this a generational issue, because I used the internet? What generation do you think I'm in? Would Bing have been better to use?
22 mph for 5 sec on an uncalibrated treadmill is believable.
How about her claim that Tom Cruise runs 31-32 mph?
My wife always makes this mistake. She comes home from the gym telling me that she ran 3 miles at 10mph. I ask how long it took her and she states, “30 minutes.” This moron is running 22 minute miles.
If we think this through people we should figure out that she is not actually “running” at all.
Yes the treadmill is traveling at 22mph, but she is only completing half of the running motion. That exercise teaches the nervous system and muscles to react at that high rate of speed, but she lacks the power and form required to actually propel herself that quickly unassisted.
She is merely getting her legs back in front of her quick enough not to fall, the treadmill then pulls her along at 22mph. Much like running down a steep hill, just keep your legs moving and let gravity do the rest.
She cannot run 22mph unassisted, so the claim is bogus. But we shouldn’t doubt that she can keep her legs moving on a 22mph treadmill. My guess is most of you can as well especially if you “trained” for it as she had.

One of the best byproducts of the cultural and technological shift away from traditional movies and TV is, and will be, the big pay cuts for actresses and actors an Hollywood. They will get paid just like the rest of us working joes. Might bring a little dose of humility and reality into their lives.
I see the same thing happening with the NFL players as well (but to a lesser degree). Simple matter of supply and demand.
Already has happened in the music biz.
You must consider calibration as well as applicability of treadmill 'speed' to actual sprinting.
A top speed of 22 mph would equate to 11.5 100m or thereabouts. She has no idea how fast that is

You guys are awesome trolls, but we have seen this one too many times before.

Yes we should.
I take it you failed Physics.
Unless you're saying she's holding onto the rails.
The real question is, if you attached her to hang glider, could she take off from the treadmill at that speed.
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
RENATO can you talk about the preparation of Emile Cairess 2:06
Running for Bowerman Track Club used to be cool now its embarrassing
Hats off to my dad. He just ran a 1:42 Half Marathon and turns 75 in 2 months!
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
