Well, as Old English is used for the Rohirric language in the LotR, the Old English word for fast is 'fæst', or agile 'léoht'.

Actually, Tolkien represented Rohirian by the Mercian dialect of Anglo-Saxon (Old English), but the two were not identical. Just like he represented the languages of Dale with Old Norse.

For example: OE Théoden = R. Tûrac-, OE holbytla = R. kûd-dûkan, and OE Éothéod = R. Lohtûr.
