I've got a rules question for you which has been bugging me for a few weeks. Here's the situation: After a turnover I have picked up the disc in my own endzone. I am walking towards the line when I spot that one of my team-mates has made an early cut and is already wide open. I then accelerate and sprint to the line, bring the disc into play and throw a pass to my team-mate. My marker had been waiting on the line, but is caught by surprise. He tells me that my accelerating wasn't allowed. Question: Do I have to walk at a CONSTANT pace when bringing the disc to the line after a turnover or a pull? I personally do not see any violation of the rules or the spirit. I am not gaining an unfair advantage. I feel it was the marker's responsibility to be ready. Am I wrong? What is your view? Thanks.
