Slalom Around the Table

That hallway stretch led right into an absolute obstacle paradise: the living room! I spotted the thick wooden legs of the coffee table and immediately saw a high-speed slalom course. Lining myself up, I sprinted straight for the first corner, leaning hard to bank around the dark timber post. My plush shoulder brushed right past the varnish, and I nearly lost traction on a loose stray coin resting against the carpet edge. Instead of stopping, I spun around the post using one outstretched glove, scooped up the shiny gold penny with my other hand, and slid to a grinning halt beneath the low tabletop shadow. Pure agility!
