Preparations are underway for the school's athletic festival. Izumi-kun was hoping to avoid being placed in the highlight event, the boys and girls mixed relay, but unluckily enough, that's exactly what he's chosen for. But Shikimori-san and all of their friends end up on the relay team with him, so he feels like it'll actually be fun this time. The gang wastes no time starting to practice for the race, but it doesn't go so well for Izumi-kun and Hachimitsu. They refuse to give up, continuing to practice until the day of the festival comes. Hachimitsu seems to be in very low spirits before their event starts...
And I'm moving my legs faster 
than I ever have before.
وأنا أحرّك ساقَي بشكل أسرع
من أيّ وقت مضى
Dabei … laufe ich so schnell wie noch nie.
Y eso que hoy estoy moviendo
las piernas como nunca.
Y estoy que estoy corriendo
más que nunca.
C’est la première fois
que je cours aussi vite,
E io che sto correndo 
come non ho mai fatto prima...
E estou movendo minhas pernas
mais rápido do que nunca.
А ведь я… и так бегу быстрее,
чем когда-либо раньше!
