You always stretch yourself out 
more near the end of a race.
Du streckst dich am Ende 
eines Rennens immer ganz lang.
Tú siempre aumentas la velocidad 
cuando estás por llegar a la meta.
Tú siempre aceleras 
antes de llegar a la meta,
Tu t’étires toujours plus 
en fin de course.
Nagisa tira fuori sempre il massimo
 quando la gara sta per finire.
Você geralmente faz crawl de costas
 no fim de uma corrida, não é?
Ты всегда ближе к концу заплыва
раскладываешься на воде.
