This is the fastest I've ever seen the speed of thought clocked. Let's used the low end: Twenty milliseconds.
In that time, something going the speed of sound could go a little under seven meters.
Multiply that by a hundred and you still wouldn't have Superman's speed. 👆

But can Supes move that fast at the drop of a hat?
Well if you did know anything about Heroes you probably would have pointed out by now that none of the characters actually stop time, they just slow it down dramatically. When Hiro runs into someone with superspeed, she can run around at normal pace because of this despite everyone else being statues.
Daphne herself was so fast that people stood still when she moved and she's crossed the world in moments, and when she got her powers boosted, she ran faster than the speed of light and ran through time. She was also temporarily frozen, but she was already in motion and Hiro couldn't fully stop time then. If she's not in motion, she's stuck like everyone else.
Peter however can stop time.

His full speed?Probably not.
Fast enough to clear a distance of ten feet (IIRC the standard starting distance) before they think?
Yes.
Keep in mind that I'm not even saying Superman wins. I know very little about Heroes. I am just debating this specific point because I'm bored. 👆
The distance isn't 10 ft...much further than that.

This is arguable. Not saying it's impossible, but more proof is needed.

Peter and Sylar would be able to take it if it wasn't for that. I hope nobody forgot about the power peter got from that kid when Hiro got brain cancer. He could give or take life.
What? What episode was that? I saw all 5 seasons when they aired on TV and I don't recall that episode.

When the **** did all that happen? Was that Ando boosting her?
Either way, without a boost shes not as fast as Superman.

Running through time she was boosted by Ando yeah. But she's moved fast enough on her own that people are pretty much frozen in place while she's doing her thing. She's even stated that seconds/minutes are like hours to her.
And while Supes is fast in flight, it takes time to build up that speed. He doesn't just instantly break the sound barrier. And he certainly doesn't fight that fast.
