Want to get even crazier?  Throw in the Athletics specialty.  Every point in that gives you another 8 lb/4 kg lift capacity and 1.4 mph/2kmph movement speed.

Pain Penalites and lifting stuff (if you can't potentially lift double the weight of what you're carrying) also slows your movement speed significantly.

Yeap, but the gains in investing into Athletics are limited, as 5 Points only allows a max increase of 40 lb/20 Kg and 7.2 mph/ 10 kmph, both of which are drops in the bucket at the high numbers I was talking about. Still, it be another way to make you stronger/faster than possible, and its cheaper than raising DEX too, so its worthwhile to invest in it for RP reason, or if you know your character will be doing a lot of heavy lifting/sprinting.

Ick, that would shackle any would be speed demon, but if they are moving THAT fast before hand they might just end up avoiding damage all by themselves! *Whoosh!*
