The speed of the LEDs can be changed by using the potentiometer.And it depends on the value of C1 ,R2 and R1 too.Change values to get your desired speed.Higher the value of C1 slower the LED chasing speed.You can reduce the number of outputs by connecting the pin 15 reset of 4017 to a output pin of 4017.For an example let's say you just want 5 outputs then connect the pin 15 to the pin 1.
