Take a Sec

whether you're last
Or coming in first
you always TAKE A SEC to look back at the competition
and when you do
you realize you're in a good position and see that all your hard work has paid off
and just because your in a good spot
dont ever slack off and under estimate your competition
whatever you do always remember to TAKE A SEC and
ENJOY...
