"Scenic Jogging features Mayer chasing projected images of typical screensavers such as idyllic meadows and mountainscapes. These images are embellished by design programs to be more attractive to appeal to our primal desire to be outside rather than in front of a computer or in ugly urban landscapes. Even if Mayer were to ever catch up her object of desire, she will find it never existed in the first place, and she has been chasing the unattainable. "

"Now, here, you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place." - The Red Queen.

The only thing that would have improved this video is if it was a fat person running.
