He'd finally found someplace maybe warmer that the north. As he walked along the eastern edge of the beach, he came upon a sandbar that connection the mainland he stood on to the island he'd been curious about as he approached. There was a long stretch of sand there, flat and wide. It was a cool evening, but the weather would still have been nice to relax in the sand if he so chose. However, he hated the sand and sought to get out of it as fast as possible. And he was pretty curious about that island over there.

Come down, come down sweet reverence

Jynn sulked as she walked from the fjord onto the sands of the bifrost. She'd lost again! Twice to that little hairless dog. Come to think of it had she even managed to win a race since coming to Boreas? An occasion didn't come to mind. She eyed the stretch of sand and wondered just how quickly she could get across it. As she did she spied a dark colored male with white markings. Hmm… Jynn picked up the pace to catch him, he seemed to be moving pretty quick. "Hey there! You look like you move fast. I don't suppose you'd fancy a race? First one to Auster wins?"

Happily considering just bolting across the sandbar on his own, Crowley was surprised to see an even leggier individual approach and ask about his interest in a race. He had just been considering running towards it at full speed anyway, so why not see if this leggy thing was faster than him or not. It was an interesting proposition and with a quick nod towards the rusty... fox? he readied himself in a position to run directly across from what they called Auster. He couldn't remember a time he had raced anyone before, so he was certainly interested in seeing what it was like.

Come down, come down sweet reverence

Jynn grinned as the man settled into a racing position. He was a quiet fellow, considering he hadn't said a single word to her but she got the body language well enough and it wasn't in her to pry. He could be mute or have an injury. "Ok, great. Ready? On the Count of three. One… two… three!" Jynn kicked off the colorful sand and bolted forward, her toes spread wide to give her more traction on the sand. She was determined to win this race. She just needed a win to boost her moral and if she lost well, clearly she needed to figure out where she kept failing and train a bit more.

The girl certainly looked fast, whatever she was. She looked like a really tall fox and it was confusing for the man. Would she be as fast as a fox or even more so with those legs? He was a bit worried he would lose, but at least at the end he did what he wanted to do. With or without the girl, he would still make it to the large island. As he and the girl readied themselves, the girl began to count down and Crowley was itching to go. When she said the final number, he bolted off alongside her .

Jynn pushed herself as fast as she could and as she saw a small flock of seagulls up ahead she steeled herself. The birds took off to the air squawking and shrieking as they took off into sky and scattered before her feet. She had to swerve a bit to avoid a particularly slow bird but after thought she sought to put on another burst of speed. Jynn was panting, surprised at how long the bridge really was but she wasn't going to give up. She knew her endurance needed work but maybe she could hold it together long enough to actually win this race and seize a victory.

His legs were sore from his journeys across the mainland but that wasn't going to slow him down now. He wanted to win this race even if it didn't really mean anything to him. Just the win would be fun and now that he wanted it, there wasn't any stopping him from trying to take it. There were birds ahead of them that caught the girl off guard as one took it's time to take off. Unfortunately, it turned towards him and managed to cut him off, but only causing a thankfully small falter in his rhythm. Hopefully not enough to cost him the race.
