How far can a man go to challenge and thwart the limits of human endurance? That's the question posed by this inspirational documentary about Terry Hitchcock, a 57-year-old man who responded to the breast cancer and death of his wife, and his own sudden single parenthood, with an attempt to become a real-life Forrest Gump: in 1996, Hitchcock ran 75 marathons in 75 consecutive days, or a total of 1,965 miles, to bring national attention to the needs of single-parent families. In the process, Hitchcock struggled with such obstacles as fractured bones, chest pains, freezing rain and debilitating heat, but nevertheless succeeded at reaching his goal. Tim Vandesteeg directs; Billy Bob Thornton narrates. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

    At first, I couldn't imagine how I might enjoy this movie, given that it's about an old guy's running adventure but WOW. This is an amazing film. It will challenge your perspective on life -- what you are living for, the challenges you can overcome. My wife and I literally cried for the last half-hour of the movie. I strongly recommend this movie. It is officially one of my all-time favorites now.

    I’m really looking forward to seeing My Run on DVD. I originally saw it in theaters in March... amazing! Terry's story is truly an inspirational and uplifting story of a father’s love for his children and the marathons that he ran and lived. My Run is a beautiful documentary that shows us that anyone with a dream and the courage can be a hero. Go Terry, Go!
