Congratulations, Class A! 10k, No More Slacking Off at the Start of the Month! (Continued)

Whoosh!

Twelve classes, twelve contestants, stood on the same starting line.

But unlike the other classes, a girl stood at Class A's starting line.

Hmph!

Kamuro charged forward with a grim expression.

Her athletic ability was rated B+, yet she felt immense pressure now, even finding herself unable to give it her all.

Because from the very start, she had fallen into last place.

The world record for the 100-meter sprint was 9.58 seconds.

An average person needed fourteen seconds to run one hundred meters.

The world record for the 200-meter sprint was 19.19 seconds.

An average person needed twenty-eight seconds to run two hundred meters.

Roughly speaking, the first fifty meters were the acceleration phase.

The middle hundred meters were the full-speed burst phase, while the final fifty meters would gradually slow down due to exhaustion.

So while the 200-meter race fell within the range of sprinting, it was actually somewhat harder than people imagined.

In terms of stamina, girls were also weaker than boys.

That meant they were slower, and needed more time to accelerate.

On top of that, their stamina depleted faster.

So in an instant, the boys from the other classes had already opened up a gap from Kamuro.

Though it was not a large gap, it still placed enormous psychological pressure on her.

That pressure, in turn, drove her to accelerate even faster.

Compared to the 100-meter sprint, the 200-meter race gave people a chance to keep pushing past their limits and accelerating.

Huff! Huff, huff!

When Kamuro ran with all her strength to the second exchange zone, where Kōenji was waiting, she immediately stretched out her hand and passed him the baton.

However, the runner in first place was already more than twenty meters ahead.

As much as she did not want to admit
