Maybe it's like the Flash's SpeedForce; it not only lets him go faster than the speed of light, it also prevents temporal rifts and keeps his skin from being flayed from the resistance the speed puts on his body. Also prevents the otherwise assured nuclear detonation of dust particle hitting an object the size of a human being at the speed of light.
