Character animation question ??

I have a character, i animated a walk cycle in maya. Than i brought it up in Unity, But my character is just walking on one spot. How can i control the distance for the character and speed. ??? i hope you guys understand what i am talking about.

and i also have a other character that i will plan on having multiple animations on him.

one is idle, the next is him talking. and the next is him walking. but i will only create a walk cycle. i want to control all of the animation, and time them when i want them to be played.???

if some one can help please.

Thank You,
Aldin Bilalovic
