About the only good thing about this episode is the setting which revealed a part of history to me that I had never heard about before. This episode takes place during a pedestrian competition; in this contest, a bunch of men get together in a big warehouse and they spend the next several days simply walking in a circle. At the end of that time, the winner is the person who has walked the farthest. This is incredibly bizarre; the competitors sleep in the warehouse in tents, are served meals in the warehouse by the sponsers (!), and, yes, there is an audience that comes and goes throughout the lengthy event. Unfortunately, the story here is the worst of the entire series, I think. It ends up making almost no sense and is totally dull. Kudos for the weird history, but that’s about all I found in this episode. 1 star.
tl;dr – aside from the bizarre setting, a pedestrian competition, this episode has nothing to offer. 1 star.
