If you're in an open map (*cough* tremor/porcyon *cough*) and being chased as a marauder, you will die. The marauder walks as slow as humans, which is sad.

Don't walk then?

You can move faster with jumping/walljumping,
With even a little bit of strafejumping the marauder can outrun any alien class, even pouncing dragoons if there are corners. Ofc most players don't even know what that is, so:
options-> HUD-> Show Speed-> Text + Graph No-Z, and try accelerating about 80 degrees to the side of the direction you are moving in (hold left+fwd, and aim ~35 degrees to left, switch to right side on next jump so you stay on course). You can easily double your speed, or even triple in some places once you are good at it.

Don't run, jump.

Staying on the ground with mara is only good while fighting and you already are within close/medium range, and even then, only while fighting a couple S1 humans or a single S2 human.
