00:00Are you sure you're up to this?

00:06Too right.

00:07He's as fit as a fiddle.

00:09My grandmother's fit as a fiddle, but she's not planning on running from Sydney to Melbourne.

00:14This is a serious race, and quite frankly, I don't believe you're up to it.

00:17Oh, no, no, I'm good, sir.

00:20I'll be right.

00:22Gentlemen, I'm going to have to level with you.

00:26I have sponsors investing vast amounts of money in this race.

00:30I have media contributing endless amounts of columns to this race.

00:34I have councils and governments committing their resources to this race.

00:37I also have athletes, great athletes from...

00:40And Cliff's one of them.

00:42Gentlemen, these athletes are world class.

00:45And Cliff, what, you're 61 and a potato farmer?

00:49I'm sorry, but I will not have my race turned into a farce.

00:53Therefore, I will not accept your registration.

01:03I used to have an old mongrel greyhound.

01:06Ugly bloody thing.

01:08Used to take him rabbiting.

01:11And other guys would bring their dogs down from Melbourne or wherever, and yeah, they'd

01:18catch plenty.

01:19But at the end of the day, when their dogs were knackered and laying under a tree panting,

01:26old Toby, he'd still be out there, bringing home my dinner.

01:36That dog was the most determined, stubborn bastard I have ever known.

01:42But I can tell you, hand on heart, that dog wasn't half the athlete you see standing

01:49before you.

01:50And I can tell you, Mr. Pow, if you don't let Cliffy run, you're not only doing us a

01:59great disservice, you're also doing a great disservice to your sponsors, the media, and

02:04the race in general.

02:11I'm sorry, gentlemen.

02:16Didn't know you had a dog, Walt.

02:18I didn't.

02:38Back in the race, Walt.

02:39I should have put you in the motel tonight with Paul and Eunice.

02:49Oh, that's all right, Walt.

02:50Well, you'll get used to this bed anyway.

03:07Big day tomorrow.

03:09Yep.

03:14You say to Powell to make him change his mind.

03:18No, no, Walt.

03:24All right, champ.

03:39And Parramatta Shopping Town is abuzz this morning with the impending start of the Sydney

03:46to Melbourne Ultramarathon.

03:47And of course, no ultramarathon would be complete without a Lutheran choir.

03:51Now, listen up.

03:52You're a one-page painting.

03:53If any of these showboaters hit the gas, let them.

03:59Got them.

04:03That'll be great, Paul.

04:04Just run your own race.

04:07OK, runners.

04:08Shit.

04:11Take your marks.

04:14Ventilation.

04:15Good thinking.

04:16Good set.

04:17Hey, Walt.

04:18Thanks for coming along, mate.

04:20We're off.

04:21We're off.

04:22Out of the garden, we're off.

04:33Bloody hell.

04:35I'll bet you 50 bucks this bike doesn't even make it to Gundagun.

04:38Who is he?

04:39Cliff Young.

04:40And it gets better.

04:41Have a look at this.

04:45Excuse me.

04:46No, wait, wait.

04:50Sorry, I'm a bit thirsty.

04:51Run!

04:52Oh!

04:53Sorry, sorry.

04:54Oh, Jesus.

04:55Excuse me, excuse me.

04:56Excuse me.
