Yes. It's not quite running but it's a very fast walking or maybe jogging. At least to me it would be! When I walk at 3.7 mph on my treadmill, that's speed walking to me (I guess, I'm not very in shape).

If I'm walking at 4mph I feel I can't go any faster. Seems like it's at least a jog, maybe a run depending on height, etc.

During your stride:

If a foot is in contact with the ground at all times, you are walking.

If both feet leave the ground at any point, you are running.

That is the ONLY definition physiologically -- speed is irrelevant.
