Increase walkspeed incrementally

[67_av]

How do you make a script that makes your walkspeed go faster the longer you hold. For example:
after you hold W for 4 seconds the walkspeed go faster, and then you hold for 8 seconds, it goes faster.
If you play Touch Football you know what I mean.

It’s pretty much easy. (This goes in StarterCharacterScripts, by the way.)

local maxSpeed = 65
local speedGain = 4
while task.wait() do
	if script.Parent.Humanoid.MoveDirection == Vector3.new(0,0,0) then
		script.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16 
	else
		script.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = script.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed + speedGain
		if script.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed >= maxSpeed then
			script.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = maxSpeed
		end
	end
end

I want it to be a delayed, for example: 5 seconds after u hold W, your walkspeed is 18, 8 seconds later after u keep holding W, your walkspeed is 23 like that

local userInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

local step = 1 --increase walkspeed by 1 per second
--17 walkspeed after 1 second, 18 walkspeed after 2 seconds (longer you hold, faster you go)
local maxSpeed = 50 --maximum speed

local function onInputBegan(input, processed)
    if processed then return end
    if input.KeyCode ~= Enum.KeyCode.W then return end --check if W pressed
    local connection
    connection = runService.RenderStepped:Connect(function(delta)
        if userInputService:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.W) then --check if W held
            if humanoid.WalkSpeed > maxSpeed then return end
            humanoid.WalkSpeed += (delta * step) --increase walkspeed
        else
            connection:Disconnect() --disconnect connection
            humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16 --reset walkspeed
        end
    end)
end

userInputService.InputBegan:Connect(onInputBegan)
