'What鈥檚 the fastest recorded speed of a greyhound?'

Sean asks how fast a greyhound can go. A precise answer is required.

鈥淲hat,鈥 Sean asks, 鈥渋s the fastest recorded speed of a greyhound?鈥

鈥淭hey can go 40-50 mph,鈥 says Eugene. "I went faster when my mother in law came to visit!鈥

"Back of the class to you, Eugene. I鈥檓 not accepting that. We need a precise answer. I take it your mother in law is not listening."

鈥淚 used to know a greyhound man,鈥 says Davy in Bangor, "and as far as I remember the fastest a greyhound has been recorded running is 42 mph. It was a race in Australia. Other than that I can't remember, it was about 20 years since I've seen him!"

鈥淵ou hit the crossbar. You鈥檙e a mile slow. But I have to give you the certificate.鈥
