Mexico - Gulf of Mexico - Jogger on cruise ship track

Half-way across the Gulf of Mexico, between Miami and Cancun in Mexico, a rather overweight passenger on Carnival Cruise's Fun Ship Ecstasy struggles to push his obese body around the ship’s top Sun Deck Olympic jogging track. In evening tropical sunlight, the man runs while sweating and panting , punishing himself while listening to a portable Walkman music player (before the era of digital MP3s). Carnival's ships are known for their Las Vegas decor and entertainment, calling its vessels Fun Ships. The MS Ecstasy is a Fantasy class cruise ship featuring two pools, whirlpools, a variety of dining options, nightclubs, a casino, and duty-free shopping, catering to budget travel.
