Playing all my high school football games on astroturf, I can tell you that playing on the turf does not increase top speed over wearing cleats in nice grass. However, you CAN cut and accelerate noticeably quicker on astroturf. Planting, changing direction, etc, are all so much easier on turf rather than grass.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?

i find it easier to run on gravel because your feet don't dig into it, and it's not as steep

Most runners find they can run faster on road than on grass although it largely depends on your running style.
