    Dude probably just gets tired of running everywhere.

    He can run around the world in a second, but the catch is he has to run around the world.

    And if he's able to react and avoid running into things, it means he's experiencing more time, so that 2 seconds might feel more like the normal amount of time it would take to run that far.

    And hopefully his reaction time increases with his speed, otherwise every 2 seconds would seem like they are long enough to run around the world in.

    I had a Batman action figure with a bright prison orange suit. The least stealthy suit possible. But I was 8 and thought it looked cool and begged my mom for it.

    Batman doesn't always wear black. There's a time and a place for everything.
