Even though Lily was somewhat wondering if Keiko would be able to keep up that speed, she didn't look over her shoulder or anything. The main goal of the Englishwoman was her workout, everything else was of secondary importance. However, soon enough, when the brunette heard the sound of approaching footsteps, it became clear that the blue-haired woman was not at all confused by such a running speed.
It seems that this woman belonged to a rather rare type of people who were perfect in everything without exception. Usually, those who possessed considerable physical strength were not good enough in speed. Lily was the opposite type. She didn't have truly outstanding physical strength, but she more than made up for it with high speed. Keiko, in turn, apparently had no problems with either strength or speed.
"It's a workout," Lily replied, hearing her new acquaintance's question, "no more, no less."
Lily was very bad with humor. What kind of sense of humor can you talk about when you are practically deprived of the opportunity to even smile? Therefore, she took Keiko's question as if it was a serious question. In any case, the Englishwoman slowed down, reducing the pace of running by about half, but still maintaining a decent speed. It was necessary not for rest or something like that, but for the body to experience stress, because this is the only way to prepare it for a real fight, where there is practically nothing constant. Lily glanced at her fitness bracelet to check the remaining distance.
"After a hundred meters, another acceleration for five hundred meters," she said, "after that, it is necessary to overcome another five hundred meters at maximum speed."
Since she had covered most of the distance before meeting Keiko, it was time for the final of that training session. One more acceleration, and then the maximum effort in order to reach the finish line. The essence of this was more than simple. At the end of the match, when you and your opponent are exhausted, you have to find the strength to finish the match. Therefore, the last five hundred meters had to be overcome at all costs, sparing no effort in order to give everything to the maximum. It's time for the first acceleration. The Englishwoman's amber eyes sparkled, her lungs filled with air and she again significantly increased her speed, rushing forward.
