running against time

This is another struggle with iambic pentameter.

Running Against Time

The smell of cold against nostril hairs,
Ice cream headache when it hits the brain.
Who holds the stopwatch, tick, tick, tick?
Without fourth dimension, no stress, no fast heartbeat.
The taste of adrenaline, to run against time.
The cold cross country run that took my love
Of sport away, and shut out competition.
