Uncanny Speed

Type: Necromantic
Source: Dragon #312

You lash thick, strong ligaments and tendons to your undead creation's joints and limbs, making the resulting creature faster than normal.
Benefit: An undead creature created with this feat gains a +2 bonus on initiative checks and a +10-foot increase to its base speed.
Prior to animation, you must spend one day modifying each skeleton or corpse with body parts from a corpse of the same size category, and then make a successful DC 16 Heal check to fix these modifications. Furthermore, you must add crushed gems worth 50 gp per affected creature to the normal material components for animate dead. The body you loot for parts cannot be animated. For the purpose of control, treat the resulting creature as having 2 more Hit Dice than it actually does.
