Race Page #4

First, we're gonna start off

with high knees, like that.

You got to lift those legs.

And we're gonna work

on your syncopation.

A lot people think a shorter

stride makes you slower.

Well, a lot of people are wrong.

A shorter stride means more

strides and a faster time.

When your feet are in the air,

you're not moving forward.

So let's get those

legs working double-time.

Let's go! Move it,

move it, move it!

Dear Ruth,

this is all I can send you this month.

Our books cost much

more than you'd think.

But I got a job at

a service station

that's good for

a few bucks a week.

Our coach has his own ideas

about how to get things done.

He's working us pretty hard.

Now, you probably won't believe this,

but guess what I did today?

I applied for

a marriage license.

I'm coming back for you

in style, Minnie Ruth.

Kiss Gloria for me.

I miss you both so much.

Jesse.

Come on. Let's go.

I'm coming.

Missed you at

practice this morning.

Yeah. I, I had to cut

up a frog for lab class.

Okay. What about

this afternoon?

I was at the service station.

What, were you pumping gas?

Look, Coach, I need this job. I got a

lot of people counting on me, all right?

Well, I guess I misunderstood.

'Cause I was

under the impression

when you stood in my office

and you looked me in the eye,

that you made me

a goddamn commitment!

You think you know everything?

Got nothing left to learn,

is that it?

No, sir!

Look, I know I ain't

as fast as I want to be,

but you need to figure out a way

to feed and put

clothes on my baby girl.

Or else, fit your

practices in around me,

'cause I'm all out of options.

Hey!

Why didn't you tell

me you had a daughter?

You never asked.

Welcome to Germany,

Herr Brundage!

Thank you.

I trust you

had a pleasant flight?

Yeah. Very impressive.

This will be the largest

and most technically advanced

stadium in Olympic history.

326 acres, with

a capacity of 110,000.

A little more, I think,

than your Los Angeles Coliseum.

Every moment is being recorded

by Miss Leni Riefenstahl,

one of our most

talented young filmmakers,

handpicked by

the Fuhrer himself.

This is history, Herr Brundage.

For the first time,

an audience of millions

will experience the Olympics as

if they were there themselves.

I've never had much

time for the pictures.

Herr Brundage...

Let's allow Miss

Riefenstahl to explain.

Sorry, I'm late.

May I present

Dr. Joseph Goebbels?

How do you do?

His ministry is financing

my little film.

Well, I've been

hearing all about it.

It's my hope that Olympia will

stand as the greatest advertisement

for the Olympic ideals

the world has ever seen.

At last, we will be able to honor
