MADRID, April 22 (UPI) -- A new way to estimate an individual's speed based on stride length could have uses in the study of fossil trackways of human footprints, Spanish scientists say.
Researcher Javier Ruiz from the Complutense University of Madrid and his colleague Angelica Torices from the University of Alberta in Canada said they've designed an equation to predict an individual's walking or running speed based on their tracks.
