If I was pitching it to a movie studio, I'd say it's a cross between Chariots of Fire and Field of Dreams (but running, not baseball). (less)

When he said his best race was actually a small-college cross-country event in which he didn't even win, it made me curious how others would view their "best races." Once I picked the brains of other runners -- of all abilities -- I came away with many poignant, inspirational, funny, heart-felt, and unexpected stories which they were happy to recount in our interviews.

Quotes by Chris Cooper  (?)

“But my absolute favorite part of it is after I finish, so I can wait there to encourage people to keep pushing to the end. By the time I’m finished all the fast people are already passed, so it’s good to be able to cheer on those who really need that encouragement to finish. It’s a great feeling when you acknowledge someone and they just brighten up and pick up their pace. That cheering at the end makes such a difference for the runners, you see it in the smiles on everybody’s face. I love to be a part of that. It’s just a tremendously inspiring race.”
