I know people make fun of that scene, but the T-Rex’s top speed was actually only around 12 mph. The first movie got it wrong (in their defense, this top speed is a more recent development based on new musculature models). There are records of people in stilettos getting up to 15 mph. Considering that the Rex was in captivity most of its life, and that new pen definitely didn’t seem like it had room for a full on sprint, I’d imagine it could only get up to 9-10 mph, meaning that it would not have been too difficult for a woman in decent shape to outrun it for a short distance…
(It irks me how much people make fun of that scene. Like Prometheus. it’s actually a lot more intelligent that most people give it credit for)
