I did a quick check and no DK-specific legendaries seem to affect runspeed. So you will be using https://www.wowhead.com/item=132443/aggramars-stride (as any plate speed twink would), and then you have the choice of https://www.wowhead.com/item=146667/rethus-incessant-courage or https://www.wowhead.com/item=132452/sephuzs-secret . Rethu's has 15% and 2 more sockets, but loses its buff around adds. Sephuz is a fixed 10% with an additional 70% sprint for 10s every 30s which you can trigger via stuns.

I'm not quite sure how DK secondary stats scale (so as to pick the best secondary stat to stack), so someone else will have to chime in here. In either case, 111s get the full 50 stats from BFA gems, so a 111 should end up with a slightly higher runspeed, all else being equal.

If you don't have the 1hander Garrosh heirlooms (so you can dualwield them for 4 extra sockets), then go UH or Blood and use https://www.wowhead.com/item=13505/runeblade-of-baron-rivendare . If you do have the heirlooms, check if the extra 4 sockets will outweigh the flat 10% from the runeblade. Pick any cloak that can be enchanted with the 2% runspeed Gift of xxx enchant.

Those are the major points, I think.

That's not really a good reason to pick DK :). Dungeons you usually farm over and over for the tmog gear, and raids take longer than the cooldowns of your hearthstone, dalaran hearthstone, garrison hearthstone (T3 garrisons have portal to ashran --> and faction capital from there). And of course engineering teleport toys, since you will want the rocket boots belt enchant anyways.

Of course, if you're after DK-specific tmog, that's irrelevant. Anything else a Warrior will do faster, if you want plate.

One other thing I forgot - have a careful read through https://xpoff.com/threads/110-quick-start-guide-bfa.80758/ and plan your 300 ilvl azerite items accordingly, so that you get the Longstrider trait on each.
 
Also you can equip both the 3% and 5% movement speed "Straddling" gems.
