Hey, since no-one else has entered a valid entry, here goes:

Human Ex-Barbarian 1, Monk, level 18.
Abilities: Natural Con 18,
23 after stat increases.
28 with inherent bonuses (wish, tomes)
34 with +6 enhancement bracers
Equipment: Monks Belt, Boots of Speed

Feats: Run, Dash, Great Fortitude, Endurance. any 4 others.
Spd 105 ft.

Race 1:
For the sprints, 105 feet in 6 seconds.
Running: 525 feet in 6 seconds.

Endurance Race 4:

I can run for 34 rounds before making a save. My save bonus is +28, and rolling a 2 on a d20 gives a result of 30. Therefore, I can run until (at least) 20 additional rounds, easily beating the 50 round time limit.
Running gives a speed of 525 fpr (feet per round), times 50 rounds gives 26250 feet total.

subtracting two standard actions to activate the Monk's belt and Boots of Speed, that's 25200 feet. However, this allows 20 partial actions. The partial actions I will partial run in (PH p. 127) for 1050 each, or 21000 for all twenty. total of 46200.
46200 feet in 5 minutes. Average speed of 924 fpr. 8.75 miles.

Nezumi (OA “ratling”) 10st level EX-Barbarian, 10th level blade dancer (OA)
Abilities: Natural Con 20 (+2 for race)
25 after stat increases

Feats: Run, Dash, Great Fortitude, Endurance and more.
Base Speed 135 ft.

Race 1:
Magic: Boots of Speed & Haste
For the sprints, 405 feet in 6 seconds.
Running: 2025 feet in 6 seconds.

Race 3:
For the sprints, 135 feet in 6 seconds.
Running: 675 feet in 6 seconds.

His CON is better then a human too so he'd beat the Monk in the endurance one too.
 

Human Jedi Level 13+ (SW)
Abilities: Dex 13+

Feats: Burst of Speed, Master Speed, Control, Force-Sensitive, Run
Base Speed: 10 meters (little over 30 feet)

Race 1:
For the sprint, 900 feet in 6 seconds.
Running: 4500 feet in 6 seconds.

Race 2:
For the sprint, 900 feet in 6 seconds.
Running: 4500 feet in 6 seconds.

Race 3:
For the sprint, 900 feet in 6 seconds.
Running: 4500 feet in 6 seconds.
 

Sun Elf transmuter 20 (without conjuration)
Int = 20 + 5 (stat incr) + 12 (lucky empowered empowered empowered fox cunning, got all my lvl 8 spells to try, 25% chance per spell) = 37

Feats: run

Shapechange into old gold dragon (speed 250)
speed = 250 * 2 (expeditious retreat) = 500 * 5 for run = 250
Race:
Cast 6 timestops, for 2.5 * 6 = 15 rounds of apparent time, 5 of which used to cast timestop. 11 rounds left. 11 * 3750 = 5500 feet

There is a chance of 1/4^6 (about 2.44 * 10 ^ -4) that all timestops give maximum result, resulting in a speed of 25 * 500 = 12500 ft.

I didn't haste, since ruling on the combination of haste with timestop is a bit unclear, see the discussions of the last few days. Depending on what ruling is chosen its possible to haste this variant even more.

In the races with outside help he can get even further, since he can get rods of maximise spell for his timestops. If he can buy at least 2 of them, he can get to his speed of 12500

summary:
Race 1: 12500
Race 2: average 5500
 

I've got a new idea for race 3 (sprint, no magic).

A 15th level monk 5th level catlord gain the Sprint feat, and can go:

80x10 = 800 feet

in 1 round assuming he can charge. So put something he can charge behind the finish-line, and away he goes..

Don't gain much from magic as sprint only count normal speed (unless you rule that Boots of S&S doubles the normal speed).

By the way

From PHB "From 9th level on, a monk's running ability is actually a supernatural ability"

that means it is magic.
 

Nezumi, Psychic Warrior 20th

Feats: Speed of Thought x 11 [Reserve - 39 PP], Quicken, Weapon Focus (not required for this, but he wants to have his free Weapon Specialization, dammit!), Run

Base Speed = 40 (race) + 110 (speed of Thought) = 150

Key Powers: Skate, Burst, Polymorph Self
Key magic items: Boots of Striding & Springing. Wildling clasp for boots

Race 1 (sprint) - Quicken Polymorph Self to a Cheetah. Base speed becomes 50 + 110 = 160. Use Cheetah's "Sprint" ability to travel ten times normal speed for one round. Final distance = 1600. Boots makes this 3,200 feet.

If he's allowed to manifest in advance...

Before the starting crossbow sounds, manifest Hustle.

Polymorph to Cheetah as above, except before the race. Manifest Skate to change base speed to 50 (base) + 30 (downhill) + 110 + 10 (freely quickened Burst) = 190, doubled to 380 by the boots of S&S. In the first regular part of the round, the cheetah form makes this a sprint of 3,800. The partial action gives another 50+30+110 x5 for running, or an extra 1900 (boots of S&S = x2), for a grand total of 5,700 feet in six seconds.

647.7272__ mph. Not too shabby.
