How fast are you?

If a T-Rex did live now, would you and I be able to survive?
Would we able to out-run a T-Rex if we needed to?
How could we work this out?
If we couldn't out-run the T-Rex what else could we do? Outsmart it? Most likely!

Working out fast you are can be done in four ways:
1. having mum or dad or an older sister/brother ride their bike or drive their car beside you while you ran as fast as you can; NOT really a good idea, or
2. timing yourself over a set distance and then converting that time to "speed" or kms/hr, or
3. having someone else measure how quick you are, perhaps by using timing lights, and then calculating "speed" (km/hr), or
4. using a GPS, or
5. guessing (not very good, nor much fun)

Let's measure your time over 20m and then YOU can work out what that means in terms of "speed" or kms/hr.

Then you will know if you could outrun a T-Rex or whether you would have to outsmart it
