Answer:

The top speed of a cheetah is around 69 to 75 mph. However, the cat can only sprint a short distance of around 0.28 miles. A cheetah is about 2.7 times faster than the fastest human runner. A cheetah accelerates very quickly, allowing it to overtake prey at close range. The fastest cheetah on record is Sarah. Sarah lives at the Cinncinati Zoo in Ohio.
