42 as fast as one's legs can carry one
стремительно, стремглав; ≈ со всех ног, сломя голову, что есть духуJohnny had been confined to the house all day, save when he had been sent for a message; looking right and left down the street before he started; and then darting to the shop to get what was wanted, and back again to the safety of his home as fast as his legs could carry him, for there was war between him and his catholic comrades. (S. O'Casey, ‘I Knock at the Door’, ‘The Red above the Green’) — Джонни целыми днями отсиживался дома и выходил, только когда его посылали за чем-нибудь; и прежде чем пуститься по улице, смотрел направо и налево, а потом со всех ног мчался в лавочку, покупал что нужно и - назад под крылышко матери, ибо между ним и мальчиками-католиками шла война.
Run round as fast as your legs can carry you, and tell Georgie Middleton to come here at once... (S. O'Casey, ‘Pictures in the Hallway’, ‘Death on the Doorstep’) — Беги что есть духу к Джорджи Миддлтону и скажи, что я велю ему сейчас же прийти сюда...
He clambered out of the window, adjusted his costume hastily, and fled up the village as fast as his fat little legs would carry him. (H. G. Wells, ‘The Invisible Man’, ch. 12) — Мистер Бантинг вылез в окно, наскоро поправил свой костюм и пустился бежать по улице со всей скоростью, на какую только были способны его короткие толстые ножки.
