Determined to qualify by finishing in the first ten, and with no other runners in sight, Billy reversed the direction of the arrow indicating the run route. Little did he know the competitor in front of him had done the very same thing.

Really? Thank you! I don't think anybody else could say this about me. Most people think I am a pain in the butt. )))

LOL! Good use of the image and the character's name to imply/show us he's a young person without telling us. Congrats on the win!

Cheers! Thanks, but I fear you are giving me too much credit there. I picked the name Billy only because it rhymed with silly. I hadn't thought of the young person aspect at all:)
Congrats to you on the win. There was quite some competition this week.
