I have to say, all the many downsides aside? This is pretty cool. We're basically in the Star Trek future. With aliens!  I mean, I've met an alien before, in a different universe, but she did look fairly human. Aside from the whole faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, able to fly thing she had.

Anyways, hi. [He gives a little wave.] My name's Barry Allen, and I'm the Flash.  Not this universe's version of the Flash, though. I'm from a different one entirely. It's similar, but they showed me a couple pictures of the one from this reality and he wore a lot more spandex than I'm entirely comfortable with.

Getting off of that, it's nice to meet you guys, and I look forward to working with all of you.

hes crazy dont worry
i mean how can you cheat in a race
short of like steroids or tripping the other guy but i promise not to do the latter and i doubt steroids would help much against crazy superspeed anyway

Trust me, given the right knowledge and abilities, there's a lot of things you can do against crazy superspeed.

So, what's your power?

shenanigans

Any of these shenanigans involve slowing down time?

sometimes
i mean in a race its pretty much just speeding myself up in relation to everything else which is not really that different from superspeed so it seems pretty fair game to me

It's not entirely the same thing. Usually, when I run, unless I time travel I'm not altering how time flows, I'm just running really fast and speeding up my perception along with it. If it was a time thing I'd probably wouldn't have had so many issues with keeping up my glucose levels.

close enough
still results in me going fast so the mechanics are kind of a moot point
