ILS runways are usually 5,000 feet or longer. You could dissipate speed
over the runway.

I suspect if you cross the runway threshold right on the glideslope at 90
knots in a Skyhawk with a 5,000 foot runway, there is no way you could
overrun the runway if you tried.

I don't know about a Skyhawk, but FWIW, our former home airport
used to have only 1 ILS, to Rwy 8 which meant if low wx combined with
wind, one might be landing with a tailwind (prevailing winds from
west in these parts). As a training exercise, one time I kept my
speed up to 90 kts over the threshold. I didn't run off the runway,
but I was durn close to my "go around!" point before my plane
decided to quit flying and settle down. I definately landed on
the last 3rd of a 6,500 ft runway. Dunno what the tailwind was --
nothing too startling (10-12 kts?)

Unfortunately, since many training ILS are done to a missed
approach, landing from an ILS isn't something at which some
instrument pilots get a lot of practice.
