Based around Wind Walk giving a flying speed of 300' and guidance that Monk's speed boost does apply to a flying speed.

I present the Weaponised 303-Monk, so named because of the distance it can cover in one round, requires a friendly Transmuter and a whipping to sustain Rage prior to launch. It will be travelling at a minimum of Mach 2.37 as covers the 3.03 Miles in single round.

It's also quite angry and impotent when it arrives after covering 16,800 feet.

Fastest Speed Build - Wind Walk + Friendly Transmuter
Tabaxi - Abjurer 2, Rogue 2, Fighter 2, Elk-Barbarian 5, Monk 11
Race - Double speed
Feats - Mobile +10
Class - Barbarian Elk Rage +15, Barbarian Fast Movement +10, Fighter Action Surge +Dash, Monk Fast Movement +20
Spells - Cunning Action +Dash, Longstrider +10, Haste +Dash & Double Speed, Wind Walk 300ft speed
Objects - Boots of Speed Double Speed, +5 Minor Magic Item Quality, +10 Major Magic Item Quality, +10 Transmuter
Boon - Speed +30

Base Movement: 420 feet
300 +10+15+10+20+10+5+10+10+30

Speed Multipliers: 3,360 feet
Boots x2
Haste x2
Tabaxi x2

Number of Moves: 5 x 3,360 = 16,800
Move = 1
Action +1
Bonus (CA) +1
Haste Extra Action +1
Action Surge +1

Something a little less impractical and self-sufficent:

Base speed supplied by Druid Wild Shaping and Haste/Flying being available in a Rage - Potions. This gets - Land 6,400, Swimming 6,400, Climbing 5,600, Burrowing 4,600, Flying 6,400

Fastest Speed Build - The 30 ought 30 Master of Movement
Tabaxi - Wizard 7, Barbarian 5, Druid 4, Fighter 2, Rogue 2
Race - Double speed
Feats - Mobile +10
Class - Barbarian Elk Rage +15, Barbarian Fast Movement +10, Fighter Action Surge +Dash, Cunning Action +Dash
Spells - Longstrider +10, Potion of Speed +Dash & Double Speed, Wild Shape 60ft (60' swim, 40' climb, 15' burrow)
Objects - Boots of Speed Double Speed, +5 Minor Magic Item Quality, +10 Major Magic Item Quality, +10 Transmuter, Potion of Flying
Boon - Speed +30

Base Movement: 160 feet
60 +10+15+10+10+10+5+10+10+30

Speed Multipliers: 1,280 feet
Boots x2
Haste x2
Tabaxi x2

Number of Moves: 5 x 1,280 = 6,400
Move = 1
Action +1
Bonus (ER or CA) +1
Haste Extra Action +1
Action Surge +1

After the first round top speed drops to 2,720 and hit and run speed becomes 2,040 or 232mph.

Total distance coverable at speed maintaining Haste&Wild Shape - 30,030' or 5.69miles in 13rnds, average speed of 263mph
Total distance coverable at speed maintaing just Haste - 112,020' or 21.2miles in 10mins, average of 212mph for 10mins
With a Gnome jockey to supply the Haste and a little melee damage - 218,240' or 41.3mph, average of 236mph for 15mins

But really, at this level, just buy a teleport or messaging spell if it that damn important to be somewhere in a hurry.

Three things:
1. This adds up to 21 levels
2. If you have a second wizard in the party, you can do this at 17th level (second wizard casts expeditious retreat)
3. I'm AFB right now, but I think the magic item minor/major properties stack

*Looks over this
*Sees the Weaponized Monk using two levels of Fighter for another action via Action Surge
*Checks his own speed build
*Sees 12 levels of Monk for +20 ft of walking speed
*Realizes it can be dropped to 10 levels of Monk to accomodate two levels of Fighter
*Goes off to see if a fifth action in a turn will take his speed build above Mach 3

Even if it doesn't work, thanks!
