But not in proper grammar...
But seriously though, nothing wrong with raising your arms in the air or giving a fist pump. I can't imagine any other sport asking this question except maybe golf.

Haha honestly as long as you don't make it a scene or go crazy it's fine. Like you said,nothing wrong with a fist pump or something small like that. After that, it's right back to the team.
Brah, golf is not a sport.
I see no no problem with it as long as everyone else behind you gets a participation award.
2 pages on LR.com and no one has yet told you to grab yourself and yell "gobble, gobble MF"?
this place must be getting some class

Ooh. I like that idea.
Make sure to "spike that baby".
Celebrate and enjoy your win
Molly huddle will not advise you to do that.
Only losers who never win anything meaningful criticize people celebrating their victory. As long as it's classy and not offensive or demeaning behavior you should celebrate and enjoy the victory. You never know when your last win will happen. Unless it's like in a slow section/heat or something. Just do you. Don't worry about what other people think.
No.
But in pro tennis Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer could benefit from
the cool temperaments of a Borg or a Pete Sampras.
I don't like when most people celebrate because it's douchey, especially when your loud and fist pumping. The only way to act is to stick your index finger up to let them know your won and bless yourself at the finish to thank god. There is no need to do more then that.
Less arrogant/stupid than primal.
Around here that gets you DQ’ed if you have certain officials.
The only answer is to glide over the line with arms extended as airplane wings.
Won a couple of dozen races as a high schooler and celebrated once crossing the line: winning a spring road race after six months off with a knee injury I raised my arms in the air in a sort of double fist pump as I crossed the line. Several friends congratulated me over the course of the afternoon, many suggesting my celebration must have been a sign of how happy I was to be back from injury. It was a pretty spontaneous thing but I still felt sort of douchey after.
I’d like to see someone resurrect the Maurice Green fire extinguisher celebration. Original and funny as hell.

If I win a high school XC race, can I celebrate as I cross the line or would that look dumb
when i win a road race (unless it's a tiny, low-key race) i throw the finish tape/banner on the ground and stomp on it while smiling. then i hold my arms up and people cheer.
i think they like that kinda craziness.

I only won one xc race in HS. Got 2nd 13 times. Didn't even stay for the award ceremony because my parents hated waiting for awards. Celebrate your victory. It could be your only one lol.
