Wikipedia article
'Jogging Fever' is a 1981 animated television special and the fourth and final of 'The Flintstone Special' limited-run prime time revival of 'The Flintstones' produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions which premiered on NBC on October 11, 1981.
'Jogging Fever' was animated at Filman, an animation studio in Madrid, Spain (headed by Carlos Alfonso and Juan Pina) who did a lot of animation work for Hanna-Barbera between the early 1970s through the mid-1980s. This was also notable for being the final television special to feature Hanna-Barbera's controversial studio-made laugh track, which was used throughout the 1970s.
