The act of sprinting across the platform as soon as the doors of your train open in order to get onto the train on the opposite side of the platform before it's doors close. Named after Finchley Road underground station in London, UK, where the Metropolitan and Jubilee lines are on either side of the platform.
Sorry I'm late, had to do a Finchley Road Sprint but I didn't make it to the other side so I had to wait for another one.
