Guinea pigs are generally fast moving animals, Venezuelan jet-black guinea pigs can run speeds of about 37-41 mph (68-70 kmh). Depening on breed, guinea pigs are believed to be the worlds fastest rodents. Most are 19.5 meteres a second.

Yes exeedingly fast rodents, they're calculated to run 41.16 mph maximum speed. Many people believe guinea pigs are fat slow and lazy, however this is a hoax, guinea pigs are just like pigeons; which are 50 mph + flying speed and they look fat but can still accelerate their bodies abruptly.

I would recommend 10-minute sessions every day for two months. Guinea pigs are quick learners.

You can't take Guinea Pig's for a walk with leads or anything like that as they are very bad for a Guinea Pig's spine. You are best to either let them go in a run outside or let them out in your house. You are best letting it run in your house, but keep it away from wires and spaces it can hide in. You shouldn't use a guinea pig harness or lead as they can damage their sensitive spines.
