Build a real life Flash - How to create the speedforce in real life?

+0
−0

In DC's TV-series (and comics), Barry Allen is The Flash: a superhero powered by the speed-force. This speed-force allows him to move incredibly fast, can be transferred to others, and there also exists a synthetic version of it (it's not that healthy).

Given current technology levels, how far you can push a real human being? Where are the limits for an enhanced human? How fast could he run? What would stop him from running any faster? What would some other side effects be?

Imagine you have unlimited resources (but you can't make up anything, everything has to be announced or existing in our current world) and labor. You can pump him (or her) full of drugs if need be.

I know, a person won't be able to run at supersonic speed, but how fast could one actually go? 60 mph perhaps?

What would be the most effective way or Drug combination to accelerate a Human being to maximum possible speed. In other words: How to create Velocity 9? And How fast would that be?
