Yes. Cockroaches are very fast. That makes them harder to get rid of. And then when you stomp on the slow ones, they don't live long enough to have slow babies. But all the fast ones escape to make fast babies.

So they get faster and cleverer with every generation. Aagh!

The fastest recorded speed measured for the American cockroach is nearly 2.0 miles per hour, or nearly 75 centimeters per second! In the absolute sense, this is a much slower speed than many vertebrates are able to attain. In relation to body size, however, it is remarkably fast. If speed were increased proportionally, an American cockroach the size of a lion could run about 50 miles per hour.
