And in ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKingOneandaHalf'', we see ''Pumbaa'' do the same thing,,, ...except that he is running in slow motion ''on purpose'' so that Timon would catch up with him and help Simba defeat Scar and reclaim his title as the rightful king.

Adding note that the song is called Titles, not Chariots of Fire

Not surprisingly, ''Chariots of Fire'' is the name of this piece of music. The original was composed and performed by Music/{{Vangelis}}, who also did a lot of the music for ''Film/BladeRunner''. The use of their tune as a parody or as generic running music has become well known even among those who have never seen ''Chariots of Fire'' or even who couldn't identify it by name - see also ParodyDisplacement.
