Should you get a Tennessee walker if you want a fast running horse to ride everyday?
Tennessee Walking horses are not the fastest horses. They run about the same speed as most other horses, around 25-30 mph. They are really smooth though, in all their gaits, trot and lope included, from my experience. They are really good horses. However, if you want a really fast horse for short distances, a Quarter horse would be a better breed. They can run at 55 miles an hour for about a quarter of a mile. For a slightly slower horse but with more stamina, you could look into a thoroughbred who run closer to 40 mph. Other horses run about 25-30 mph like the Tennessee walker.
Should i get a Tennessee walker?
I personally love Tennessee Walking horses. As a general rule they are such a kind, gentle, willing, tolerant, versatile and amazing breed that I as a 10 year old was able to train a weanling TWH by myself with no injury to either one of us. Not that you should do that, but it is just a demonstration of how great a breed they are. They can do so much more than just gaited shows and trail rides. They can do anything you want them to, just probably not at the super high levels. But a good, sound TWH with good conformation can take you pretty far into whatever discipline you choose. The only downside of a TWH is if you are just learning to ride, their smooth gaits could be a downside as you will not learn how to properly ride since their gaits are so easy to ride whether you're riding correctly or not. But if you already know how to ride or have other non-gaited horses you can learn on then their smooth gaits are a huge plus.

What is the best 1st horse for a 5' 10 year old intermediate rider that does some English more western and trail riding?
Paint horses are good for western, and can be used for English too, so that could be a good horse for you. Tennessee Walking horses could be a nice option for you because they are very versatile and have great gaits for trail riding. I use my TWH mare for mostly trail riding, but I also use her for western and I do a little bit of casual bareback jumping on her- proof that TWH's can be used for everything you do.
