Running is featured, however, as the grand finale between two rivalry summer camps (after a hotdog-eating contest, some swimming et cetera).

This movie’s from 1979 and it shows. It’s still funny, but I guess you’ll have really like Bill Murray or be in that summer-camp-movie mood to enjoy it. Or sit through it and wait for the running, of course.
