A pumping retro disco song with synths. If anyone asked Giorgio Moroder to write a hit song about Marathon running, this is what he'd write!

Pre-Ch)
I'm going to run run run run the marathon
I'm going to run run run run the marathon
I'm going to run!

V1)
I'm just a number at the back of the race
keeping up with the rest
it doesn't matter if I don't take place
I'll do a personal best
and even if I have to crawl
well, the winner doesn't take it all
believe you're gonna make it through
and I do

Ch)
I'm going to run run run run the marathon
I'm going to run run run run the marathon
I'm going to run run run run the marathon
I'm going to run run run run the marathon
I'm going to run!

V2)
You see the crowds and your mind explodes
come on, you're nearly home!
But then there's Miles and miles of empty roads
when you're all alone
they tell me it's the taking part
won't you tell it to my aching heart
the only thing on my mind --
is the line!

Mid8)
Although each step I take, the pain is great
My body’s natural way to compensate
My soul injects these thoughts of lovin’ you
I picture you’re the one I’m runnin’ to
