without needing to go absurdly fast

... I would actually argue that for a human catching anything at c-1m/s is impossible. Except catching death perhaps.

Not going "absurdity" fast is more of a requirement.

You're already going c-1m/s if compared to the right reference frame.

You are correct, can't argue with that.
