Africa 3.7 million years ago. Australopithecus afarensis is the first hominin (ancestoral human) to adapt life on the ground. They traveled in pack of families scavenging for grubs and plant roots. Banding together meant a chance at survival, against predators like Saber-toothed tiger (clip)

Bates et al. present the first physics simulations of running in Australopithecus and demonstrate that maximum running speed was considerably lower than modern humans, with a restricted submaximal range available for endurance running, which suggests that key features in the human body plan evolved specifically for improved running performance. 📹: Video showing side-by-side comparisons of the optimal maximal speed running gait of the iterations of the Au. afarensis model with modern human-like
