Description

As piano-driven, synthesizer new age music plays, we see a pack of barefooted runners dressed in all-white jogging shirts/shorts. Obviously this is an homage to the beach scene from Chariots of Fire, along with the memorable theme song from the movie. But soon we find everything's not what it seems. The runners pass by parking meters, a manhole cover, a man on a bench, a fire escape, a taxi cab, newspaper vending machines, a woman walking by a tree, and a mail box. Then all of a sudden a bus zooms by, and we're taken to a modern day city. The runner that was center frame in the pack (now running alone) is shown wearing Nike Free shoes.
