Glaive didn't waste anytime for this warm-up. Since he wasn't going to be fighting later on he didn't need to reserve energy and hold back as much. He kept pace with the other competitors before going faster and faster, jumping the knots of tree roots that burst through the path. His tail flicked from side to side aiding his balance as broke away from the crowd. He grabbed the trunk of a large tree and used the speed he built up to swing him around and make a tight left turn. After being cooped up in a boat and then forced to sit and wait, he was glad to finally be able to spread his legs.
