Not only is encumbrance and fatigue one of the most annoying features in games (it has absolutely no place in games - if I want to feel encumbered I'll go run a marathon while carrying a washing machine), it makes literally no sense within the horror idiom. The human body is capable of almost anything in times of intense fear - if you're running away from a monster you simply are not going to stop sprinting and suddenly start walking because of a want for energy. It's possible to completely wear out your muscles (to the point where you will be permanently injured) but the body certainly prefers that to dying - so you keep going for as long as physically possible.

This is all true, so unrestriced sprint whilst being chased, however the monster might still hear you if you are sprinting away.

However, when not being chased by a monster I would feel better if it was reduced down to at least a jog.
