You don't need to be faster than the predator, you need to be faster than other members of the herd.

Reminds me of the Billy Connolly joke about the two camera men filming a lion. The lion sees the two camera men and proceeds to chase after them. One camera man stops and puts on a pair of running shoes. His colleague tells him “You will never outrun the lion in those”. He replied, “I don’t need to outrun the lion, I just need to outrun you!!”.
