Back it up, theoretically
The bear is probably 20mph faster in a straight line. But how does a 600lb animal circle that massive tree and put claws on me. With me knowing I'll be eaten a limb at a time. My stamina would be impeccable

You would be surprised by their reach and honestly, they would likely outsmart you at one point, and it really only takes one. You would be better off trying to get to covered location they could not get or reach into. Of course, with my luck, I would pick a rattlesnake den.

If he wanted to eat you, all it would take is one wrong move. Just watch some YouTube videos of them chasing down prey. They’re incredibly agile for their size.
Your only chance would be if it wasn’t terribly interested in eating you. You’re probably better off climbing the tree. Even though they can climb too, your chances are better than on the ground.
Anyway, this is all completely hypothetical. I hope you wouldn’t venture out into bear country with your only plan being “I’ll just hide behind a tree until it gets bored.”

In your scenario is the bear not allowed to just back up 10 ft and run around the tree to kill you?
