1:31:35 > 1:31:39One, two. One, two. One, two.

1:31:39 > 1:31:43- Lucy, what are you doing? - Can't you see?

1:31:43 > 1:31:48I'm doing exercises. One, two. One, two.

1:31:49 > 1:31:53I have to get ready for the race tomorrow.

1:31:53 > 1:32:00- What race?- The potato sack race at school.- Faster, Lucy.- Faster!

1:32:00 > 1:32:03Hey, hey, hey, hey! Wait a moment.

1:32:03 > 1:32:07Put me down. I have to practise for the race.

1:32:07 > 1:32:11Lucy, aren't you taking this all a bit too seriously?

1:32:11 > 1:32:14But I want to win.

1:32:14 > 1:32:18We all want to win. But you can't always win.

1:32:18 > 1:32:23Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose.

1:32:23 > 1:32:28- The important thing is to have fun. - You're the snip-snip bird.- Yes.

1:32:28 > 1:32:35I know all about races. Let me tell you a story about Zed the Zebra.

1:32:35 > 1:32:39Zed the Zebra was fast. VERY fast.

1:32:39 > 1:32:44He was the fastest runner in all of Africa.

1:32:44 > 1:32:48Just look at those go-faster stripes!

1:32:48 > 1:32:50I'm SO cool.

1:32:57 > 1:33:01Hey, Nelson, you're a slow runner, aren't you?

1:33:01 > 1:33:04Slow? Me?

1:33:04 > 1:33:09I wouldn't say I was slow. In fact, I can run quite fast.

1:33:09 > 1:33:14For an elephant. Hah-hah! But you CAN'T run as fast as ME.

1:33:14 > 1:33:20- Says who?- Says me. I'll race you to the top of that hill.

1:33:20 > 1:33:22OK.

1:33:22 > 1:33:26NELSON SPLUTTERS

1:33:26 > 1:33:29Hah-hah!

1:33:29 > 1:33:32Zed liked to race all the animals.

1:33:37 > 1:33:40And he beat them all.

1:33:41 > 1:33:45Hah-hah! NO-ONE is faster than ME.

1:33:45 > 1:33:47Hah-hah!

1:33:48 > 1:33:50Until one day...

1:33:50 > 1:33:53Hi, everyone. What are you doing?

1:33:53 > 1:33:57Hello, Zed. Fancy a race?

1:33:57 > 1:34:01Another race? But I've already beaten you all.

1:34:01 > 1:34:03This isn't just any old race.

1:34:03 > 1:34:07This is a special race. An obstacle course.

1:34:07 > 1:34:10Special race or not, I'll still win.

1:34:10 > 1:34:15I'm the one with the go-faster stripes, remember?

1:34:15 > 1:34:17We'll see.

1:34:20 > 1:34:24And so, everyone got ready for the race.

1:34:24 > 1:34:28- Attention, everyone!- Where's Zed?

1:34:28 > 1:34:32- Here he comes.- Keep it up, Natalie.

1:34:32 > 1:34:37Hah-hah! ..Maybe YOU two should go on a diet or something.

1:34:38 > 1:34:41..Careful, Herbert!

1:34:41 > 1:34:46It's not always the fastest runner who wins the race.

1:34:46 > 1:34:51Attention! I will be giving the start signal in just a second.

1:34:51 > 1:34:54- Everybody ready?- Yes.

1:34:54 > 1:34:56- Yes.- Yes.- Yes.

1:34:56 > 1:35:00- Yes.- Attention! Go!

1:35:02 > 1:35:05Zed the Zebra has taken the lead.

1:35:05 > 1:35:09Georgina is second, with Ronald in third place.

1:35:09 > 1:35:15But this is an obstacle course, so anything can happen.

1:35:15 > 1:35:19We've come to the first obstacle - the jungle.

1:35:19 > 1:35:24Zed has slowed down. He's not quite sure what to do.

1:35:24 > 1:35:30Here come the others. The elephant's in front. Look at that!

1:35:30 > 1:35:35Nelson must be the best bulldozer in all of Africa.

1:35:35 > 1:35:40- Here's Zed again.- Nice try, Nelson. But I'm still the fastest.

1:35:41 > 1:35:44The second obstacle is the river.

1:35:45 > 1:35:49Zed has taken the plunge. He's struggling. Here come the others.

1:35:54 > 1:35:58But it's Natalie who's jumped into the lead.

1:35:58 > 1:36:02She's the best jumper in all of Africa.

1:36:02 > 1:36:05I'll show HER who's the fastest.

1:36:05 > 1:36:08Bye. I'll see you at the finish.

1:36:08 > 1:36:12And, once again, it's Zed in front.

1:36:12 > 1:36:15He's racing away. Where's he gone?

1:36:15 > 1:36:18Where am I?

1:36:18 > 1:36:22It looks like Zed's lost in the great grasses.

1:36:22 > 1:36:24Here come the others.

1:36:24 > 1:36:28HERBERT: Where am I? RONALD: It's this way.

1:36:28 > 1:36:31NATALIE: No, that way.

1:36:31 > 1:36:34NELSON: I've got hay fever. Atchoo!

1:36:35 > 1:36:38Oh, dear. They're ALL lost now.

1:36:38 > 1:36:40All except Georgina.

1:36:40 > 1:36:43That way!

1:36:43 > 1:36:47And, yes, Georgina has taken the lead.

1:36:47 > 1:36:52Georgina is the best pathfinder in all of Africa.

1:36:54 > 1:36:58This way! No, that way.

1:36:58 > 1:37:00Atchoo!

1:37:01 > 1:37:03Atchoo!

1:37:03 > 1:37:07But now the zebra's back in the race.

1:37:07 > 1:37:11It's Zed neck and neck with Georgina.

1:37:11 > 1:37:16- Just look at the giraffe's neck. It's SO long.- Bye.

1:37:16 > 1:37:18I'll see you at the finish.

1:37:18 > 1:37:23Zed's still winning. He's almost reached the big boulders.

1:37:24 > 1:37:26Oh, he's slowed down once more.

1:37:26 > 1:37:29The zebra is having problems.

1:37:29 > 1:37:31But here comes Ronald.

1:37:31 > 1:37:36Ronald is the best boulder-basher in all of Africa.

1:37:40 > 1:37:43But Zed is NOT giving up.

1:37:48 > 1:37:50Hah-hah!

1:37:50 > 1:37:55He's fast approaching the last obstacle - the blue mountain.

1:37:55 > 1:37:59Blue, green or red, no mountain is going to stop me.

1:38:09 > 1:38:11Zed is having problems.

1:38:15 > 1:38:19And here come Nelson, Natalie and Georgina.

1:38:19 > 1:38:23What are they waiting for?

1:38:23 > 1:38:25It's Ronald.

1:38:28 > 1:38:33But even Ronald's not strong enough to beat the blue mountain.

1:38:33 > 1:38:36We've got a problem.

1:38:36 > 1:38:41Hey, there's Herbert! I'd forgotten about him. What's he doing?

1:38:44 > 1:38:49Herbert is the best digger in all of Africa.

1:38:50 > 1:38:52What a race!

1:39:01 > 1:39:04Move it, wobble-bottom!

1:39:08 > 1:39:13Herbert is still in the lead, but Zed is hot on his tail.

1:39:13 > 1:39:19- The gap between them is getting smaller.- Beat that, short-legs!

1:39:19 > 1:39:23Zed has overtaken Herbert. Just look at that!

1:39:23 > 1:39:27Way out in front, it's Zed the Zebra.

1:39:27 > 1:39:32No-one can possibly catch up now. Zed the Zebra,

1:39:32 > 1:39:37the fastest runner in all of Africa. He's almost reached the finish.

1:39:37 > 1:39:42What's happened? The zebra has stopped at the water hole.

1:39:42 > 1:39:47Look at those stripes! No-one's faster than me.

1:39:48 > 1:39:51It's a photo finish. Smile!

1:39:52 > 1:39:57The winners are...Georgina, Nelson, Natalie, Herbert and Ronald.

1:39:59 > 1:40:02And in second place, Zed the Zebra.

1:40:04 > 1:40:08The water hole wasn't one of the obstacles, Zed.

1:40:08 > 1:40:12I suppose I'm not always the fastest runner.

1:40:12 > 1:40:15But you ARE the biggest boaster.

1:40:15 > 1:40:19- Sorry. - Zed's learned his lesson.

1:40:19 > 1:40:21Three cheers for Zed.

1:40:21 > 1:40:26ALL: Hip-hip-hooray! Hip-hip-hooray!

1:40:26 > 1:40:32- Hip-hip-hooray!- After all, I DID come second. That's not bad.

1:40:33 > 1:40:38- Ah! I feel tired now.- I think you need a good night's sleep,

1:40:38 > 1:40:41so you're fit for the race tomorrow.

1:40:41 > 1:40:45- That's right. Bedtime, young lady.- OK.

1:40:45 > 1:40:51- Good night, everyone.- Good night, Lucy. And good luck tomorrow.
