NO! do not run from a bear, it will trigger their predatory instincts and they will chase and catch you. Running downhill, or anywhere for that matter, will not do you any good. Bears can run up to 35mph, which is nearly twice as fast as the fastest human. If you do find yourself face to face with a bear, remain calm and stand your ground.
