What is the average speed of a Spider monkey?

Spider monkey's speed tends to vary from time to time. As I was doing research down in Brazil I often noticed that when the monkey's feeding site ran out of food that the monkeys started moving at about 12-miles per hour. While at other times when the monkeys had all the food they needed they tended to move at about 4 miles per hour. All in all I think the spider monkeys move mostly when food is scarce.
