I guess it has to something with good African runners?

Very few africans have cars and those that do have a limited number of locations that are easily accessable. Most of them get everywhere by either walking or running. In addition, the major african running countries, kenya, ethiopia, etc. are at high altitudes and so they gain more endurance and oxygenation levels.

I think you mean cheetahs. And no, because I'm pretty sure all of Africa's great runners didn't get fast by being chased by lions.

No. It has more to due with small, skinny frames, and people whose everyday life involves a lot of walking and running, often for great distances.
