If you practiced everything properly and with metronome you should be able to know every note nicely. On really high speeds you can't exactly concentrate on every note, but before doing a properly practiced run you should be a aware of all the notes coming. Runs are often done in some forms of triplets, so groups of three notes is what you can always stay focused on so you don't get lost

I've been playing for many years and I don't know the notes I'm playing. I will know if I get a couple seconds to think and then I figure it out from a chord I'd take with that note included rather than knowing all positions by heart.
I know the expected sound on different intervals i.e playing one note I have the sound in my head from any surrounding note. That's something useful to practice imo, pick a note in the pentatonic and then pick another close by in the same scale. Do this for different patterns of two notes in many different positions. Answer and reply if you have a buddy to practice will be easy if you know this. Meaning your bud plays a riff and then you repeat it to the note. -------------------- My bands homepage

Funny tho since student of mine asked me the same question few days ago.
Yes, you must be aware of all notes that you're playing but you just can't really THINK of each note separately when doing some fast runs, it's almost the same as pronouncing each note on loud, there is no time for that when playing 32ths at 100 bpm per example. But you need to know which notes you will play or you just played, no doubt. -------------------- Youtube
