Running Man 101

Each episode features a lineup of regular cast members, guest celebrities, and an array of diverse settings. The participants are divided into teams and assigned missions they must complete, usually under a time limit, and often while avoiding pursuit. Yes, that's where the "running" part comes in.
The Never-Ending Race
