Hopefully it will be one of the first things to be modded.
There should be a way to mod the character Run Speed. I did that in Oblivion and never bothered with the whole horse thing which was clunky.
There is, you can type in "player.setav speedmult x" where x is a number, 100 is default apparently, I use 120 generally, 9001 and you go into the ocean for a while...
Also, when using it, you can have press the Walk button for at least 1 second, for the game to realize that you changed it.
Merry Gaming.
