The Long Run is the twenty-second track in Halo: Original Soundtrack.
Overview
The piece is almost entirely percussive, with a few synth sounds in the background, which seems to resemble the John-117 running. This makes it very similar to Drumrun. It consists of a repetitive drumroll which is designed to underscore the nature of the escape and to make the player feel a sense of urgency.
Appearances
The soundtrack can be heard:
- In the level The Silent Cartographer, when John-117 has deactivated the security facility of the island, and fights through a group of Stealth Sangheili.
- In the level Assault on the Control Room chapter "Rolling Thunder", when John-117 rides through the tunnels of Installation 04 in a M808B Scorpion.
- In the level The Library, when 343 Guilty Spark leaves John-117 at a locked door on the second floor to reset the backup unit for a drone control subsystem.
- In the level Two Betrayals, at exactly the same point along the backwards journey through the same area, in the large room after the blast door which explodes on opening.
Arrangements
The track was arranged into Marathon Sprint in Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary: Original Soundtrack.
