Lise takes her time

Lise opts to use the hose, putting her thumb over the opening to increase the water pressure and actually move the ball. When she runs out of hose to use, partway through the course, she searches the shed and finds more. However, she is presumably unable to find a connector, as she never actually connects the new length of hosepipe. She manages to find a water gun somewhere, and seems to have a little success moving the ball further down the course with it. Finally, Lise realises that she can simply move the goal, and does so, annoyed that she did not think of it from the start. Lise finishes in 6 minutes and 47 seconds, and comes third.
