In classic I had to run and jump to get away from most mobs, or I had to strafe run.

Why, were you encumbered? This is not the way I, nor the dozens of other posters I've seen automatically assuming faster mob run speed on P99, remember it. You jumped a few times to get ahead of the pack (running out of your yellow fatigue bar in the process), then coasted on auto-run to a zone line, and it would be fine.
Here, you turn around, take a few steps, and every mob in the game catches you within literally about two seconds. That is a gigantic disparity in run speed between here and Classic. Mobs should not be naturally faster than players. On P99 and R99, they are very much faster, I would say at least 10%.
If mobs were faster than players in original EQ, it would have to have been at most 2% for people to be able to auto-run to the zone line to remove aggro. The only time you died in such situations is if the mobs had their speed buffed or if you were too late initiating your escape.
