Mount Terror was a place that martial artists went to train regularly, he'd visited it a couple of times. Some of the sensei who went up there didn't disassemble their training equipment for the next student or just partially disassembled it. The last time he'd been there, he'd been training for a grudge match against Katsuhiro Watanabe and his Demolition Martial Arts Style.
Ranma quickly discovered that laws of physics applied themselves whether he wanted to acknowledge them or not. It was not possible to run so fast that inertia couldn't keep up. Hitting a tree while running at very high speed was quite painful. On the other hand it was possible to do things with this extreme level of speed that were fairly interesting. Like running so fast in a circle that one caused a column of air to swirl things around. Being able to run at such speeds that one could take a fifteen minute training break and get something to drink in that neat little pop shop in Chiba.
He also seemed to get sugar cravings pretty bad when he used this superspeed technique.
Hitting a boulder a thousand times a second could set up a vibration to crumble the boulder into a fine powder.
As nifty as the speed technique was, he didn't see how it would get him able to defeat a yoma. Those things fed on life energy, and attacking one physically allowed it to sap the attacker's energy. While his speed technique could set the stage for various ninja-like tricks, it didn't give him a ranged attack or protection from yoma.
On the other hand, if he had room to manuever he could probably dodge anything it threw at him.
