Benjamin Alire Saenz Quotes

I led by three or four feet, with Biggy John Biglow surging closer on each stroke. I hated him in those last few seconds; he was the only reason my guts were being strewn over the water like an oil slick ... I pressed one last time, and looked at the finish-line flagman.
