  • By the way, in the description you say "Bekele". It wasn't Kenenisa, it was his brother Tariku. Mottram would've easily been defeated by Kenenisa.

  • I had a tear in my eye watching this. So emotional and motivational!

  • Song?

  • For those naive enough to think that -the 1983 world championship race between Mary Decker and the russians was not a political n ideological combat didnt understand how it was in those days.They wanted to beat Mary and take her down and prove and their system and way of life was superior.But Mary triumphed in the end,and that Russian girl falling down at the end of that race was symbolic to me and the rest of the world.Great video !

  • I agree with tildyc that Mary Decker during the 1984 3000 acted like a poor sport. While she cried, screamed and glared at Zola Bud on the in field, she was the ugliest woman I've ever seen. But don't let that moment in time discount an entire career of middle and distance racing. The passion that day was directed in the wrong direction, but without that passion, she never would of become the exceptional runner she was... We all make mistakes.

  • thanks for motivating at least a million people all around the world. please if possible make more videos..

  • they don't even know yet

  • Cross country coach here, im planning to play this for my boys when we go to states

  • I always come to Fancy Boy to get myself out there on a tough day. I love running! But- I do not care for may decker- she was a very talented runner- but she is a poor sport and seemed always to blame her failures on others. Zola Bud- now that was a class act!

  • i love why do you run and godspeed...both very inpserational

  • sir! whats the title of the song? tnx

  • @Chupakambra

    It's Wake Up by Arcade Fire.

  • How did this happen, did she have a serious fall???

  • huge thanks to the creator of this video for giving such inspiration and reminding us to appreciate some remarkable running feats, so much of them seem in time with the tune.....i show this to any runners i know. i'd never seen the decker 1500 before this, what brave, quality running and drama at the line!

    as with "why do you run" the choice of song is perfect, my 2 fav vids on this site..

  • Fan freaking tastic! Poetic even! Great message, awesome song, and amazing video clips!

  • Wow those are such good clips!

  • this vid rules. I love what you get from it. I always think of this song and video when im racing a 5k for cross country, when im some where in the woods where no one can see me and i want to slow down it keeps me going!

  • Awesome!

  • amazing.

    sensacional.

  • fancyboy, your videos are amazing. i've had such a slump lately and today i almost didn't even step out the door to go run. this changed my mind.

  • awesome video
