I could feel the excitement, the crowd cheering me on. The race counted on me and only me, that's it. I could see the referee usher me over, Echo was waiting for me so they could explain the rules.
"Alright listen up, it's 4 laps around the track, first one across the finish line wins. No playing dirty, and no cutting track, got it?"
I shook my head, and Echo nodded.
"Take your positions, when the gun goes off, take off, ok?"
We both trotted off, until I got a shove from my opponent.
"Listen, I'm racing and you ain't gonna win, you don't got nothin on me, got it?"
I just shrugged it off, most of these kind of races go like this, I just got ready for my time.
"Racers, to your positions!"
I rushed over over to my race slot, and got ready for the gun.
"Fillies and Gentlecolts, the race is about to begin"
"Alright, ready up!"
"On your marks"
"Ready?"
"Set!"
"GO!"
