Definitely true of myself when I was in shape; I think (with admittedly insufficient experimentation) that it's true of most healthy humans. But the scenario I'm thinking of is both at a dead stop, waiting for the "go" signal, and measuring peak acceleration (or even average acceleration over the time it takes to reach any given speed that whomever you're measuring can reach).
But it's interesting that you did immediately go to the context I was thinking of, (i.e., "the espeaker is on foot"). That was what I wanted to test -- how many people would do that, how many would make some other assumption, and how many would complain that the context was missing.
