"Not a problem, Gaara-kun!" Gai responded with glee.

"Now then, let us run! For the Springtime of Youth! For passion! For love!" At this point, fire seemed to be surrounding the exuberant Jounin. "As friends, may our hearts pound together in time with our feet! Let us run into this morn with our spirits all aflame! We will surround the village with a circle made of companionship and joy! Come now, for we shall jog!"

And with that, Gai began with a most enthusiastic run, a spring in his step befitting of one such as he.
