Whatever these Stone Age folk were doing, the largest of them achieved a running speed of perhaps
12 miles per hour, comparable to that of a fit recreational runner today,Hmmm.....a marathon is 26 miles...at 12 miles/hour....or 5 minutes a mile
A 2:10 marathon (approximately & rounded)
Pretty good for a "recreational runner today"!
Methinks they need another working hypo here.

Stone age kangaroos seem to be every bit as advanced as modern kangaroos.

"It's possible that these people were venturing between the shores of the two nearest large lakes," Cupper says. "Maybe they were moving from one temporary camp to another, or perhaps they were on a hunting or fishing expedition."Or maybe they were going to the Walmart.

What interests me is how level the bottom of the footprint is.
Any footprint left in soft sand or mud generally has the heel and metetarsal areas dug in a little deeper because of the initial contact and then pushing off during the stride.
Maybe people walked a lot differently back then. LOL

Prediction: Aboriginal activists (or more likely, leftist whites who like to think of themselves as advocates for native peoples) will issue angry statements over not enough equal time to the "Dreamtime" theory of human origins in news reports of the finding, and demand that the footprints be rightfully returned to the original owners.
