"Judges ready, jumpers ready, begin!"
Immediately, thoughts race through my mind,
"Come on, you can do it"
"Push, PUSH yourself"

"15"

There's no escape once you start,
You are a scientist
In the middle of a life changing experiment,
And you can't simply get a way,
You must keep going.

"30"

The rope wipes over your head,
Your heart pounds,
It's going to burst out at any second,
You're a roadrunner,
But not running away,
Just running.

"45"

"Come on, fifteen seconds left!"
Your family,
Your friends
are all screaming,
But you can't hear them,
They're there,
But you can't hear them,
They're…

"STOP"

And it's you've worked for lead up to this,
This one minute in time,
And it's over.
What will happen to your score?
Is it good?
Will you win something?
As with most things in this world
We will have to wait.
