Demigod Running Speed?

But the gryphons went to save their kids before chasing down Percy, Hazel and Frank, which I don't see being included in any hypothetical calculations or the actual claim. And it's not like it's an actual screenshot of the pages in question when there seem to be gaps in the context of the feat.
 
Percy's travel speed in The Titan's Curse was roughly 10-30m/s. He's gotten faster since then (considering his other feats) but that should be considered as the base line for Demigods in terms of speed (in the Riordan-verse at least).

lso it should be noted that Percy, on multiple occasions, has been called slow for a Demigod, not metally slow, slow in terms of running speed. If you need scans I can provide.
 
A feat from the beginning of The Titan's Curse. In a game of capture the flag. Percy was able to run in, knock down Bianca (who is both a Huntress and a daughter of Hades), say "sorry" run over to the flag, rip it down, then take off and be ten meters away before she could even call for help. Since Percy was able to do all that before taking off and mannaged to get 10m away before she could call for help, that gives him a window of 0.2-1 seconds to travel that distance.

That might not seem like much for Percy (considering his other feats) but back then that seemed to be his top speed. I can post a scan if you'd like.
