The peregrine falcon is the fasted creature on this planet, up to 242 mph (389 km/h).

From wikipedia: The peregrine is renowned for its speed, reaching over 320 km/h (200 mph) during its characteristic hunting stoop (high speed dive),[5] making it the fastest member of the animal kingdom.[6][7] According to a National Geographic TV program, the highest measured speed of a peregrine falcon is 389 km/h (242 mph).[8][9]

The world's best human sprinter is Usain Bolt who has clocked nearly 28 mph (45 km/h) in the 100-meter sprint.

We are not the pinnacle of evolution. There is no pinnacle.
