Normally, the answer to that kind of question would depend on what you call "low".In the case of light, however, probably nobody would call it a 'low' speed, becauseit's physically impossible for anything in creation to travel faster than light in a vacuum. It is possible for things to travel faster than light does in other media, but it's not exactly common, and it's still very much on the "fast" end of the scale.

Does light require a medium to travel through?

No, light doesn't need a physical medium, like air, to travel. As a matter of fact, light travels the fastest it possibly can, 2.98 * 10^8 meters per second, in a vacuum, like space. If light couldn't travel without a medium, then Earth wouldn't receive any light from the Sun.
