Chris ran faster. Bo ran about 8.3 per second. Chris ran about 9.38 per second. Meaning Chris ran the faster rate, he ran faster.

Bo: 100 meters / 12 seconds = 8.3 meters per second.

chris: 75 meters / 8 seconds = 9.38 meters per second.

so Chris ran at a faster rate and it was 9.38 meters per second.
