Speed Test Run

You told me to run really fast, so I didn't waste a single second! I spotted a long wooden ruler propped against a stack of hardback notebooks, forming a perfect downhill ramp. I backed up to the edge of the tabletop, dug my sneakers into the polished surface, and sprinted full speed ahead. Zoom! The incline took me airborne for a split second before I skidded across the smooth blotter pad, knocking a loose silver paperclip spinning like a coin. Now that was proper momentum!
