sprinted 

When a cell carrier holds your phone hostage because of a "Financial Eligibility Check" under the guise of "protecting" you, in case your phone was stolen. This makes it impossible to bring your phone to a new carrier until you pay off any outstanding charges. This brings you into a cycle of owing them into perpetuity if you wish to port your phone number AND device. If you buy a new phone, you lose the number. If you port the number, you can't use the phone for at least 30 days, even if there's no outstanding balances.
Yo, I ported my cell number, but the new carrier says I can't use my phone because of a Financial Eligibility Check. WTF?

Sucks.

What'll I do now?

Buy a new phone. You got sprinted, brah.

1% Sprint 

It happens when you get distracted playing on your device, or are too lazy. You proceed to sprint to the nearest charger, while having an extreme adrenaline rush. This euphoric feeling is like no other, and no matter who you are it has happened to you.
I was playing games on my iPhone, until I realized I had one percent. I got off of my bed and did the 1% sprint to the nearest charger

The final sprint 

In the midst of a cross country race, your extremely tired and here comes the last 400m or so. You dont want to lose to the guy behind you and hopefully want to pass the person in front. You put on this final sprint and use every last bit of energy you have. This is definately the hardest moment in ALL of sports. It takes mental, physical and spiritual strength to give it your all in these last 400m. It can be the difference maker.
I was coming around the last straightaway of the race, holding onto first place, but the guy behind me put on the final sprint and beat me

In tetris, the act of sprinting is clearing a certain number of lines using tetrominoes in as little time as possible. Although the amount of lines can vary, the most common and widely known mode is clearing 40 lines (40L). The current world record holder for 40L sprint is u/Vince_HD on tetris site Jstris, with a time of 15.654 seconds.
People willing to clear 10k lines in sprint are crazy, but the amount of stamina needed for it is respectable to have.
