It was an amazing feeling of freedom, just running, bolting, sprinting, feeling your breathing begin to burn your throat and the muscles begin to release endorphins. Not altogether unlike flying, yet still nowhere near as freeing as sitting on a broom was. Alicia could hear Viktor's footsteps behind her, though as the gate came into view, so did Viktor come into her peripheral vision, and soon after he passed her. Not unexpectedly, and now that she saw him running from behind, not unpleasantly either. With a view like that, she didn't mind losing to him. Coming to a halt in front of him, she grinned up at him when he teased her. "At Hogwarts, they said that about us Gryffindors," she chuckled, trying to catch her breath. "Wow, two weeks without running, and this is how I end up?"
Shaking her head in disbelief that she had taken off that much time, she began walking a bit. Right now, even after the sprint, she couldn't stand completely still. "So, you'll be coaching too?"
