Trivia[]
- The US Version of this episode has The Falling Down Dance and The Magic House (Bottom Right Window Sketch).
- The US Version of Running aired on April 4, 2002.
- In the US Version, the very rare closeup Windmill animation clip appears after The Falling Down Dance, but this time it makes the normal whooshing sound instead of the magical event tune like in Walking in the Woods. Also, a fade effect is used after The Magic House in the US Version, the fade effect transitions to the Magic Windmill stopping.
- The fade effect in the US Version is not the same one from Delilah Packing, since in Delilah Packing, the Windmill stopping sound is delayed, but in the US Version of this episode, after the fade effect, the windmill stopping sound is heard unlike in Delilah Packing where it’s delayed.
- This is the last episode to have the shortened version of The Stretching Dance, the other episode with this version was Pebbles.
- Laa-Laa is the missing teletubby in both versions.
- Tinky Winky is the boo shouter in the UK Version, but in the US Version, Laa-Laa was the boo shouter.
- Running is a really popular sport in the African country of Kenya.
