Chad Johnson Runs 24 Mph On Treadmill With Incline; Take That, Robert Gill? (VIDEO)

WATCH: Chad Johnson Is Latest Treadmill Sprinter

Chad Johnson is going nowhere fast in this video. The 35-year-old former NFL star cranked the treadmill up to 24 mph with a 2.5 percent incline, perhaps in a bid to outdo Cardinals speedster Robert Gill, whose 25-mph sprint went viral last week.

Johnson fares well for a few seconds (and on better quality video than Gill's clip), but his legs don't have the same roadrunner effect as Gill's, in part because Johnson is taller.

A few YouTube commenters took issue with a spotter supporting Johnson as he ran, and some dismissed the stunt as an attempt to grab attention.

At least it's a better kind of attention than Johnson received for slapping his attorney's butt at a probation violation hearing. "My life is in shambles right now," Johnson told the angry judge after the incident.

He still looks to be in pretty good shape, though.
