Selenium Webdriver times out on IE 11

I am having troubles running Selenium WEbdriver on IE 11 windows 7. The Send Keys are so slow. I have already downloaded the latest webdriver for IE but it won't still work. Below is the time out exception I kept receiving:

Test Name:  TestInInternetExplorer
Test FullName:  TravelTest_1.UnitTest1.TestInInternetExplorer
Test Source:    c:\Users\Documents\Visual Studio 2013\Projects\TravelTest_1\TravelTest_1\UnitTest1.cs : line 34
Test Outcome:   Failed
Test Duration:  0:01:36.7213961

Result Message: 
Test method TravelTest_1.UnitTest1.TestInInternetExplorer threw exception: 
System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException: The HTTP request to the remote WebDriver server for URL http://localhost:14927/session/41c432de-a158-4a14-bbc0-38a21cd67582/element/c9da6f89-09e9-4da9-a84a-ea262762491d/value timed out after 60 seconds. ---> System.Net.WebException: The operation has timed out

   at TravelTest_1.UnitTest1.TestInInternetExplorer() in c:\Users\Documents\Visual Studio 2013\Projects\TravelTest_1\TravelTest_1\UnitTest1.cs:line 44

My code is below:

InternetExplorerOptions options = new InternetExplorerOptions();
options.IntroduceInstabilityByIgnoringProtectedModeSettings = true;

    using (IWebDriver IEDriver = new InternetExplorerDriver(options))
    {

        Console.WriteLine("Executed in IE 11");
        CreateTADraft(IEDriver);
        Console.WriteLine("Draft saved in IE 11");
    }

And below is the code that is having problems:

count = counter;
     if (count.Equals(counter))
     {
         count = count + 1;
         y = count;
     }
     try 
     {
         using (var context = new MainDataContext(Properties.Settings.Default.ConnectionString))
         {
             foreach (var e in context.TARequestForm.Where(x => x.Id == y))
             {
                 String contact = e.Phone;
                 String purpose = e.Purpose;
                 purposeBox.Clear();
                 purposeBox.SendKeys(purpose);
                 contactBox.Clear();
                 contactBox.SendKeys(contact);
             }
         }
     }catch(WebDriverTimeoutException e)
     {
         Console.WriteLine(e);
         throw e;
     }

I am not sure anymore of whatever workaround I can do. Btw, this actually runs in IE, it just stops in the middle of sending keys. Thanks.

Added the following in code:

    InternetExplorerOptions options = new InternetExplorerOptions();
    options.IntroduceInstabilityByIgnoringProtectedModeSettings = true;
    options.RequireWindowFocus = true;

This sped up my sendkeys. The RequireWindowFocus resolved my issue. Thanks @Kolichikov
