Little B loves his soccer class with the local recreation department. They get to run around, follow complicated instructions and generally have a blast.
One problem: little B does his best to follow the instructions to the letter. He goes around all the little pylons, stands in the middle of the hoola hoop and stands on one leg on the yellow rubber circle. He may run a little slowly but he completes all the steps assiduously.
The trouble is that little D, who goes immediately after little B, is a different sort of fish. His goal is to get back to the start point as soon as possible. So he skips all the pylons save maybe one or two, hops over the hoola hoop and neatly bypasses the yellow rubber circle.
No wonder that little B runs while facing the wrong way so he can predict when little D might overtake him... This sure isn't helping his speed any.
