I tested for a high school program and learned that I had taught myself to speed read. For me, speed reading is a tool. Anything I want just the gist of, I speed read. Anything I read for pleasure, I read at a more leisurely pace. Anything I edit for a living, I read even more slowly.
A sprinter can run at top speed when needed; that doesn't mean he can't enjoy a leisurely stroll when he wants to.
