They can only do that for about half of one body length though. It’s not really a run, so much as a spring forward to surprise something with their murder mouth, and then pull it back into the water.
They can run 35mph in that short sprint you’re talking about. Then they can run at a slower (though faster than most humans) pace for a sustained period of roughly 100 feet (30ish meters for the non-'mericans).

No, that’s 30mph that they can only do for a few feet.
No, sorry, that’s not true. And another one.
TL;DR;
