They can run very fast, especially over short distances when they are fleeing to the nearest tree. I doubt they have ever been clocked.

It depends on the species. Most lemurs move primarily through the trees, so it will depend on the quality of the path through the canopy. Ring-tailed lemurs will run around on the ground, but not for long distances. If startled, they will quickly return to the trees.

Each species of lemur will travel at its own speed.

Anyway, I don't think lemurs have every been clocked... let alone enough times to get an average.

I don't think anyone has every clocked their speed, but on the ground they are probably as fast as most healthy dogs and cats.
