Spiders used to be the only common hostile mob faster than the player. With sprinting, this has changed. At this point, you can just ignore mobs and run past them (maybe you'll get a couple of skeleton hits). Endermen are faster than the player, but they are not hostile mobs.
There should be a hostile mob that is faster than a sprinting player but spawns less often than other mobs. Maybe it can spawn a little more often than an enderman. It has to be able to outrun the player by a lot to make up for the AI's slowness on uneven surfaces (they sometimes spin around and stuff).
I have a few examples:
Leopard that runs fast and attacks like a wolf does
Some kind of creepy clay statue that moves quickly and is 3 blocks high and attacks like a zombie
A skeleton riding a pig, the skeleton fires arrows (yes, the skeleton can control the pig)
Weegee (just kidding)
Hm... rabid ocelots, anyone? Rabid wolves? All they'd require is a slight retexture (or maybe white particles dripping from their mouths) and some AI changes that make them highly aggressive.
Um, I see where you're going with this. Personally, I think there should be like buzzards in deserts and bats, because they can fly toward you at a pretty darn fast speed.
Minecraft was harder before you could sprint fast anything that might threaten you. Traveling outside at night doesn't really scare me like it used to anymore.

Same here. I don't think creepers can even blow up if you keep sprinting.

It was close to being the same speed. Get yo facts rights.
