Flashes of Panic

Honestly, if you’d asked me three hours ago I would’ve told you I’m never the winner—that sometimes when I buy Cracker Jacks, there’s no prize inside. Particularly prediction contests. (Remember this contest? Yeah, strikeout.)

So I was somewhat surprised when Tyson Gay crossed the line first in 9.85, thereby winning me 36,000 yen.

I need a new self-image, no? Come to think of it, this being an international contest, maybe USATF needs to add me to their medal table.
