The Dog is fast

I have wanted to do this for quite a while--to find out just how fast my turf bullet is. Preliminary testing has been carried out by means of ground marks, cell phone video, and a makeshift yardstick. The distance was 40,90 m , which is almost exactly The Dog's height (~40 cm) times many.¹

The dog in question. The Dog.

Frame-by-frame analysis confirms that The Dog's body had passed the finish line in the 8th last frame of 00:04, i.e. his time was 00:03,77 plus a bit more due to camera error on my part. More videos will be taken to confirm the data.

It seems that The Dog indeed is fast: 10,85 m/s = 39,06 km/h.²

The Dog could, hypothetically, beat Usain Bolt by 0,41 seconds in a 100 m sprint.

The Dog runs like the wind.  The fresh breeze, to be exact.
