You will get used to it quickly, somehow, anyway. ▶ Escalating tension The deeper you go, the faster it gets and the trickier the patterns become. One moment of hesitation ends it all. ▶ Chase your personal best No two runs are the same. Beating yesterday's score is today's only goal. ▶ Perfect for quick sessions On the subway, in line, during a break — pick it up for seconds, put it down minutes later.
