You didn't say can go 100mph in/on them.
Just 100M? What? 100 Meters? 100 Miles?

Well, we'd need a list of animals that can "move" in both, and then get the averages for both, then compare them.

I'm going to say a Caribou with waterwings! :D
I plan on abusing many peoples Avatars;

Oh fuck, I got it now!

A Basilisk (Jesus Christ Lizard).

Water velocity is 1.5meters per second (540 per hour) while running, sadly it is only capable at doing this for 3 seconds, however, it is still an excellent swimmer. Land speed is pretty much the same.

A polar bear would destroy that speed on land and in water, even if the basilisk maintained it the whole distance.

I made a miscalculation. It's 5400 per hour, not 540.

Still, 3 seconds applies. =P

Penguins might beat Polar Bears... I'm sure they're fastish swimmers.

But they would lose their advantage on the polar bear easily over land. :/

If I knew the actual swim speed of a basilisk, I'd run some calculations, fuck em up, then run em again.
