Yea, how the hell did Diana run into the Speed Force? Unless you are connected to it, you shouldn't even be aware of it. It's not a matter of how fast your going but whether or not you have a connection to it. That's how I understood it at least.
I recall thinking that Diana entered through Jesse. She left the window to the Speed Force open as she entered etc.

A speedster needs to go at the speed of light to reach it, so speed is a requirement, but yea, Diana shouldn't be able to get there without a connection, so I don't know if Diana was actually in it so much as she was running fast enough to stay close to Jesse who was at the edge, and the thing was probably from Jesse's PoV. From Diana's, it might've just looked like Quick was running and starting to transform into energy.

The speed necessary to enter the Speed Force isn't that great. If you take the quick route, all one needs to do is break the light barrier and they can enter it. Plenty of beings can reach and go beyond that speed at this point in comics. However to enter as I stated it, you need a connection.
I think it makes more sense to assume Diana ran right behind Jesse, or was dragged in with her or something similar (I don't really care.) than Diana breaking into the Speed Force on her own. It would be the first and only time a non Flash family member entered the Speed Force on their own as far as I know.

1 feat, but then again, all New Gods have shown FTL speed. So it's not that big of a deal. Even Superman was surprised.
The funny thing is, tons of characters demonstrate FTL speed when flying around- yet Jay Garrick is equal or faster than pretty much all of them on the ground, and he's stated that Wally's the only speedforcer who can go FTL unaided. And sometimes Flashes go *way* FTL without brushing near it (like Wally evacuating an entire city in moments in JLA Trial By Fire).
Quite simply, Comic Writers have no sense of Scale, when it comes to speed 🙂
It's easier to say "this character is faster than that one when they're compared" than to say much in RL terms.

Nah. From everything I've read (Which is pretty extensive.), the beings not connected to the Speed Force are not aware of it. Hence why someone like Clark hasn't accidentally entered it.
