Also factually it was never stated that the reverse flash was any slower in season one than in season 2. Or period for that matter.. he was weakened in the sense he couldn't hang on to his speed. It never said he was slower. He also rarley every used the full use of his speed seeing as he mainly wanted to antagonize  Barry into getting fast enough to send him home. The only time he ever seemed to use his full speed was in the opening seen of rouge air and that was about it
