00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:33,076
- Set.

[whistle blows]

00:01:17,077 --> 00:01:19,427
[light music]

7
00:01:29,176 --> 00:01:30,046
We did it.

8
00:01:30,220 --> 00:01:32,527
We did it, young lady.

9
00:01:32,701 --> 00:01:34,181
Half second to spare.

10
00:01:34,355 --> 00:01:36,096
Full recovery, then three more.

11
00:01:36,270 --> 00:01:37,575
- Okay.
- Proud of you, Brittany.

12
00:01:37,749 --> 00:01:39,099
Proud of you.

13
00:01:39,273 --> 00:01:40,970
- Thanks, Coach.

14
00:01:41,144 --> 00:01:44,104
[Courtney applauding]

15
00:01:44,278 --> 00:01:45,757
Hey.

16
00:01:45,931 --> 00:01:47,150
- Hi, how are you?

17
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:49,761
- [Brittany] I'm good, I'm good.

18
00:01:49,935 --> 00:01:50,806
How are you?
- Good.

19
00:01:50,980 --> 00:01:51,720
I'm so glad to see you.

20
00:01:51,894 --> 00:01:53,417
- Yeah, me too.

21
00:01:53,591 --> 00:01:54,897
Oh, Coach Michaels,
this is my high school

22
00:01:55,071 --> 00:01:56,507
cross country coach,
Coach Donnelly.

23
00:01:56,681 --> 00:01:58,292
- Ah, so you're the one
that discovered Brittany?

24
00:01:58,466 --> 00:02:00,772
- Well, I think that
Brittany discovered herself.

25
00:02:00,946 --> 00:02:02,557
- Jeffrey Michaels,
please to meet you.

26
00:02:02,731 --> 00:02:04,124
- Courtney Smith-Donnelly,
nice to meet you, too.

27
00:02:04,298 --> 00:02:06,038
- And yes, she's the one.

28
00:02:06,213 --> 00:02:07,562
- Her friends Anna and Heidi
talked her into coming out

29
00:02:07,736 --> 00:02:09,433
for cross country
her senior year.

30
00:02:09,607 --> 00:02:11,653
- Yeah and coach, I had
never run before in my life,

31
00:02:11,827 --> 00:02:12,828
thought I was gonna hate it,

32
00:02:13,002 --> 00:02:15,091
but I ended up making top seven.

33
00:02:15,265 --> 00:02:16,658
- I saw she had
some natural speed,

34
00:02:16,832 --> 00:02:18,312
so I encouraged her
to go out for track.

35
00:02:18,486 --> 00:02:19,704
- She begged me.
[Coach Michaels chuckling]

36
00:02:19,878 --> 00:02:21,271
- I begged, I did, I begged.

37
00:02:21,445 --> 00:02:22,490
- I'm sure glad you did.

38
00:02:22,664 --> 00:02:24,187
- Me, too.

39
00:02:24,361 --> 00:02:25,841
She ended up setting the
record in the 800 meter

40
00:02:26,015 --> 00:02:28,322
at Orange Hills Academy
and wound up a state champ.

41
00:02:28,496 --> 00:02:30,280
- And that's where
I came on the scene.

42
00:02:30,454 --> 00:02:31,847
Sure nice to meet
your first coach.

43
00:02:32,021 --> 00:02:33,631
- Thank you.

44
00:02:33,805 --> 00:02:35,242
- [Coach Michaels] Perhaps
we can talk some more

45
00:02:35,416 --> 00:02:36,895
at the conference.
- Yeah, I'd love that.

46
00:02:37,069 --> 00:02:39,811
It starts tonight and
goes all day tomorrow.

47
00:02:39,985 --> 00:02:41,378
- Is it just for
high school coaches?

48
00:02:41,552 --> 00:02:43,119
- No, actually, it's
for middle school,

49
00:02:43,293 --> 00:02:46,078
high school, college,
officials, administrators,

50
00:02:46,253 --> 00:02:47,950
all the Christian
schools in the state.

51
00:02:48,124 --> 00:02:50,431
Just a way for everybody
to get to know one another.

52
00:02:50,605 --> 00:02:51,649
- Sounds like fun.

53
00:02:51,823 --> 00:02:53,216
- Yeah, I think it should be.

54
00:02:53,390 --> 00:02:55,914
But enough about me,
tell me about you.

55
00:02:56,088 --> 00:02:59,831
- Well, I like my
classes, the school,

56
00:03:00,005 --> 00:03:04,619
I have some great friends, I
like track and I love my coach.

57
00:03:06,142 --> 00:03:07,143
Coach Michaels trains
the distance runners

58
00:03:07,317 --> 00:03:08,275
and he's also the head coach.

59
00:03:08,449 --> 00:03:09,537
- He seems very nice.

60
00:03:09,711 --> 00:03:11,626
- Yeah, he's the best.

61
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,150
Oh and I have a boyfriend.

62
00:03:14,324 --> 00:03:17,414
- Oh?
- Yeah, his name is Chris.

63
00:03:17,588 --> 00:03:20,548
He's on the track team
and he runs the 800.

64
00:03:20,722 --> 00:03:22,376
- Okay, okay.

65
00:03:22,550 --> 00:03:26,162
So, can you beat him?
[Brittany laughing]

66
00:03:26,336 --> 00:03:28,033
- And now we'll get
an assistance plan

67
00:03:28,208 --> 00:03:29,731
setup for you immediately.

68
00:03:29,905 --> 00:03:30,601
- Well, Doc?

69
00:03:32,821 --> 00:03:33,648
Dr. Harris?

70
00:03:35,345 --> 00:03:37,260
- Have you ever
thought about retiring?

71
00:03:37,434 --> 00:03:39,001
- Yes.

72
00:03:39,175 --> 00:03:40,742
But if I retire I won't
have anything to do.

73
00:03:40,916 --> 00:03:42,700
- Do you play golf?
- No.

74
00:03:42,874 --> 00:03:44,528
- Why not?

75
00:03:44,702 --> 00:03:47,183
- 'Cause golf is the most
frustrating game ever invented.

76
00:03:47,357 --> 00:03:49,968
- [Dr. Harris] I can't
argue with you there.

77
00:03:50,142 --> 00:03:51,753
- You didn't answer my well.

78
00:03:51,927 --> 00:03:54,712
- Something's not right
with your heart, Jeff.

79
00:03:54,886 --> 00:03:57,672
You really should retire
before it retires you.

80
00:03:57,846 --> 00:04:00,501
Like in the ground,
six feet under.

81
00:04:00,675 --> 00:04:03,068
- Well, we don't wanna
go there just yet.

82
00:04:03,243 --> 00:04:04,505
[somber music]

83
00:04:04,679 --> 00:04:05,810
What is it?

84
00:04:05,984 --> 00:04:08,683
- It's probably too much stress.

85
00:04:08,857 --> 00:04:11,425
Look, you teach
classes all day long,

86
00:04:11,599 --> 00:04:13,427
you coach cross
country in the fall,

87
00:04:13,601 --> 00:04:15,994
indoor track in winter,
outdoor track in spring

88
00:04:16,168 --> 00:04:18,301
and you've been doing
it like what, 100 years?

89
00:04:18,475 --> 00:04:20,608
The stress is too much for you.

90
00:04:20,782 --> 00:04:21,435
- 27 years.

91
00:04:24,873 --> 00:04:26,353
I love coaching.

92
00:04:26,527 --> 00:04:28,790
- Then the love of it
is too much for you.

93
00:04:28,964 --> 00:04:31,271
You're gonna need
extensive rest until

94
00:04:31,445 --> 00:04:33,142
we can get this
thing figured out.

95
00:04:33,316 --> 00:04:35,492
And Jeff, you need it now.

96
00:04:36,493 --> 00:04:39,279
[muffled talking]

97
00:04:41,324 --> 00:04:43,674
[light music]

98
00:04:49,637 --> 00:04:51,247
- So, what events do
you coach in track?

99
00:04:51,421 --> 00:04:54,729
- Oh, I don't
actually coach track.

100
00:04:54,903 --> 00:04:55,860
- [Coach Michaels] You
coach cross country,

101
00:04:56,034 --> 00:04:57,079
but you don't coach track?

102
00:04:57,253 --> 00:04:58,385
- Right.

103
00:04:58,559 --> 00:05:00,430
- You ever run track?

104
00:05:00,604 --> 00:05:02,258
- No again.
[Coach Michaels chuckling]

105
00:05:02,432 --> 00:05:03,999
Okay, when I was in high school
I played golf in the spring

106
00:05:04,173 --> 00:05:05,783
and couldn't do both, so.

107
00:05:05,957 --> 00:05:09,221
- Golf, golf is the most
frustrating game ever invented.

108
00:05:09,396 --> 00:05:11,659
- Sounds like you play.
- No, not anymore.

109
00:05:11,833 --> 00:05:15,140
For the exact same
reason I just stated.

110
00:05:15,315 --> 00:05:16,707
Must be a pretty good golfer

111
00:05:16,881 --> 00:05:19,536
if you didn't run
track in high school.

112
00:05:19,710 --> 00:05:21,103
Orange Hills Academy,

113
00:05:21,277 --> 00:05:21,712
that's where you coached
cross country, right?

114
00:05:21,886 --> 00:05:23,671
- Right.

115
00:05:23,845 --> 00:05:24,454
- [Coach Michaels] That's
about an hour from here.

116
00:05:24,628 --> 00:05:26,021
- Yes, sir.

117
00:05:26,195 --> 00:05:27,109
- Brittany's a junior,
I can't believe

118
00:05:27,283 --> 00:05:29,067
we've never met before now.

119
00:05:29,241 --> 00:05:30,765
- I know, I've been meaning
to come out to watch her run,

120
00:05:30,939 --> 00:05:32,462
and I'm gonna make it
out to a meet this year.

121
00:05:32,636 --> 00:05:34,029
- Good.

122
00:05:34,203 --> 00:05:35,813
Got a home meet coming
up this weekend.

123
00:05:35,987 --> 00:05:36,988
- [Courtney] Yeah, I'm planning
on being there actually.

124
00:05:37,162 --> 00:05:38,773
- She'll appreciate that.

125
00:05:38,947 --> 00:05:40,601
She's ranked second, you know?

126
00:05:40,775 --> 00:05:42,342
- Brittany's ranked
second in the conference?

127
00:05:42,516 --> 00:05:44,213
- Conference?

128
00:05:44,387 --> 00:05:46,998
She's second in
the nation, NCCA.

129
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,001
- I did not know that Brittany

130
00:05:50,175 --> 00:05:51,655
was ranked second in the nation.

131
00:05:51,829 --> 00:05:54,310
- National Christian
Collegiate Association,

132
00:05:54,484 --> 00:05:57,487
not the NCAA, we don't
get 'em confused.

133
00:05:57,661 --> 00:05:59,663
[Courtney giggling]

134
00:05:59,837 --> 00:06:02,753
We're a Christian
college, small.

135
00:06:02,927 --> 00:06:06,017
NCCA is made up of many schools
around the country like us.

136
00:06:06,191 --> 00:06:07,802
We're not gonna get the
elite athlete to come here,

137
00:06:07,976 --> 00:06:10,892
but now and again God'll
bless me with a little gem.

138
00:06:11,066 --> 00:06:12,807
- She never told me she
was ranked that high.

139
00:06:12,981 --> 00:06:16,985
- She a ran 2:09.8 her
first race this year.

140
00:06:17,159 --> 00:06:19,814
Granted the top girls in the
NCAA are gonna be faster,

141
00:06:19,988 --> 00:06:24,209
but anytime a young lady
runs under 2:10 in the 800,

142
00:06:24,384 --> 00:06:26,429
pretty good.
- Absolutely.

143
00:06:27,909 --> 00:06:30,041
- Last year during the regionals
a girl tripped and fell

144
00:06:30,215 --> 00:06:30,999
and Brittany and some
of the other runners

145
00:06:31,173 --> 00:06:32,696
went down with her.

146
00:06:32,870 --> 00:06:35,569
She didn't qualify
for the national.

147
00:06:35,743 --> 00:06:38,354
This year the goal is
to get to the national,

148
00:06:38,528 --> 00:06:42,706
place in the top three
and stand on that podium.

149
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,666
- You must be doing a
great job training her.

150
00:06:45,840 --> 00:06:46,580
- Thanks.

151
00:06:48,277 --> 00:06:51,193
You gave her a strong
endurance base.

152
00:06:51,367 --> 00:06:53,717
Her high school
track coach did okay.

153
00:06:53,891 --> 00:06:56,416
She's under my watch now.

154
00:06:56,590 --> 00:06:58,374
I'm pretty old school.

155
00:06:59,897 --> 00:07:02,117
Actually, my doctor is
saying that I'm just old.

156
00:07:02,291 --> 00:07:05,163
[Coach Michael chuckling]

157
00:07:05,337 --> 00:07:06,208
- Hey.
- You ready?

158
00:07:06,382 --> 00:07:07,296
- [Brittany] Yes, I am.

159
00:07:07,470 --> 00:07:08,906
- Wait, what'd you say?

160
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:10,517
- I said, "I'm ready."

161
00:07:10,691 --> 00:07:12,083
- Hi, McKenzie,
did you hear that?

162
00:07:12,257 --> 00:07:13,694
- Hey, hear what?

163
00:07:13,868 --> 00:07:14,999
- This is the first time
she's ever been ready

164
00:07:15,173 --> 00:07:16,348
when I came to pick her up.

165
00:07:16,523 --> 00:07:17,567
- It is not.
- Yes it is,

166
00:07:17,741 --> 00:07:19,264
you're never ready.

167
00:07:19,439 --> 00:07:20,048
You're always in there
with the door closed,

168
00:07:20,222 --> 00:07:21,745
right, McKenzie?

169
00:07:21,919 --> 00:07:23,747
- Don't drag me into
your family squabbles.

170
00:07:23,921 --> 00:07:25,183
- Oh, I see, two against one.

171
00:07:25,357 --> 00:07:27,185
I can't win with you two, huh?

172
00:07:27,359 --> 00:07:29,666
- Make sure you have
her home by 10:00.

173
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:31,538
- The movie doesn't
get out till 10:15.

174
00:07:31,712 --> 00:07:33,975
- Guess you'll have to
miss the ending then.

175
00:07:34,149 --> 00:07:35,542
- See ya, mom.

176
00:07:35,716 --> 00:07:37,544
[light music]

177
00:07:37,718 --> 00:07:39,110
- She's never been
ready and you know it.

178
00:07:39,284 --> 00:07:40,547
[McKenzie giggling]

179
00:07:40,721 --> 00:07:42,113
[door slamming]

180
00:07:42,287 --> 00:07:43,158
- Put everything together.

181
00:07:43,332 --> 00:07:44,638
All right, is that it?

182
00:07:44,812 --> 00:07:47,118
- Let's see what
we're doing today.

183
00:07:47,292 --> 00:07:48,555
200 repeats, 16 of them.

184
00:07:48,729 --> 00:07:50,644
We just did this.

185
00:07:50,818 --> 00:07:54,343
Coach Simpson, we just did
200 repeats a couple days ago.

186
00:07:54,517 --> 00:07:55,518
- [Coach Simpson] Yeah, I know.

187
00:07:55,692 --> 00:07:57,172
I combining everybody today.

188
00:07:57,346 --> 00:07:59,957
- Well, can the 400 girls
do something different?

189
00:08:00,131 --> 00:08:03,308
- Sure, you can do 20
of 'em, how's that?

190
00:08:05,223 --> 00:08:06,616
You know, Leah,
you question almost

191
00:08:06,790 --> 00:08:08,313
every workout I give you.

192
00:08:08,488 --> 00:08:10,533
- Sorry Coach, it's
just we just did these.

193
00:08:10,707 --> 00:08:12,579
- Well, I think
you need 'em again.

194
00:08:12,753 --> 00:08:14,363
Our relay team has a
lot of ground to gain

195
00:08:14,537 --> 00:08:17,322
if we wanna qualify
for the regional.

196
00:08:20,021 --> 00:08:21,631
[Leah sighs]

197
00:08:21,805 --> 00:08:23,241
- I don't like her.
- Uh, yeah, we can see that.

198
00:08:23,415 --> 00:08:25,113
- She doesn't know
what she's doing.

199
00:08:25,287 --> 00:08:28,377
- Come on, Leah, she's a
good coach and you know that.

200
00:08:28,551 --> 00:08:29,683
- I'm not a fan.

201
00:08:32,555 --> 00:08:33,382
[fist knocking]
- Mrs. Price,

202
00:08:33,556 --> 00:08:35,123
you wanted to see me?

203
00:08:35,297 --> 00:08:38,256
- Yes, Coach Donnelly, come
in, come in, take a seat.

204
00:08:38,430 --> 00:08:40,911
Oh, how many times have I
told you to call me Karen?

205
00:08:41,085 --> 00:08:43,479
- I lost count, I'm a science
teacher, not a math teacher.

206
00:08:43,653 --> 00:08:45,263
- Ooh, funny.
[Courtney giggling]

207
00:08:45,437 --> 00:08:47,831
So, how you doing?
- Good, good, how are you?

208
00:08:48,005 --> 00:08:50,660
- Well, normally my job
as Assistant Principal

209
00:08:50,834 --> 00:08:52,314
is about putting out fires,

210
00:08:52,488 --> 00:08:56,057
but today I have some
good news to report.

211
00:08:56,231 --> 00:08:58,929
I got approval from the board
and next spring we're going

212
00:08:59,103 --> 00:09:01,541
to field our first ever golf
team at Orange Hills Academy.

213
00:09:01,715 --> 00:09:03,412
- Oh, that'll be good.

214
00:09:03,586 --> 00:09:05,022
- Every other private school
in the state's had golf

215
00:09:05,196 --> 00:09:06,676
for years and we're just
now getting around to it,

216
00:09:06,850 --> 00:09:10,158
but we finally arrived
and I need a coach.

217
00:09:11,333 --> 00:09:12,900
That's where you come in.

218
00:09:13,074 --> 00:09:14,423
Now, I know you're
a good golfer,

219
00:09:14,597 --> 00:09:16,773
so don't try to
tell me you're not.

220
00:09:16,947 --> 00:09:19,341
I'd like to offer
you the job first.

221
00:09:19,515 --> 00:09:21,561
The pay's about the same as
you get for cross country,

222
00:09:21,735 --> 00:09:24,172
so I know that's not
really much incentive.

223
00:09:24,346 --> 00:09:26,609
But here's the agreement.

224
00:09:26,783 --> 00:09:28,480
- Thank you so much.

225
00:09:28,655 --> 00:09:32,528
I'm honored and flattered
and definitely interested.

226
00:09:32,702 --> 00:09:33,703
If it's okay with
you, I'd like to talk

227
00:09:33,877 --> 00:09:35,487
it over with my husband first.

228
00:09:35,662 --> 00:09:38,273
- Of course, of
course, take your time.

229
00:09:38,447 --> 00:09:40,144
Take the agreement
home, talk it over.

230
00:09:40,318 --> 00:09:41,450
Like I said, we're in no hurry.

231
00:09:41,624 --> 00:09:43,017
It won't start till next spring.

232
00:09:43,191 --> 00:09:44,584
[crowd cheering]
[crowd applauding]

233
00:09:44,758 --> 00:09:46,063
- [Man] Good job, Brittany!

234
00:09:46,237 --> 00:09:49,110
[crowd cheering]
[crowd applauding]

235
00:09:49,284 --> 00:09:50,720
Good job, Brittany!

236
00:09:53,854 --> 00:09:56,508
- 2:08.5, that's a PR.

237
00:09:56,683 --> 00:09:58,728
She bettered her
own school record.

238
00:09:58,902 --> 00:10:00,643
- I was hoping to break
2:09 and we did it.

239
00:10:00,817 --> 00:10:02,253
- We did it.

240
00:10:02,427 --> 00:10:03,864
I've very proud of
you, young lady.

241
00:10:04,038 --> 00:10:05,561
- Thanks, coach.

242
00:10:05,735 --> 00:10:07,519
- That's a great time,
Brit, congratulations.

243
00:10:07,694 --> 00:10:09,260
- Thanks and Coach Donnelly,
thank you so much for coming.

244
00:10:09,434 --> 00:10:10,479
It really means a lot.

245
00:10:10,653 --> 00:10:11,915
- Well, I'm happy to be here.

246
00:10:12,089 --> 00:10:13,308
I wouldn't have
wanted to miss it.

247
00:10:13,482 --> 00:10:15,223
- Brittany!
- Oh, it's my dad.

248
00:10:15,397 --> 00:10:16,180
- Go, go.

249
00:10:19,096 --> 00:10:22,099
She's the best female
800 runner I've ever had.

250
00:10:22,273 --> 00:10:23,927
- I'm really glad for her.

251
00:10:24,101 --> 00:10:25,494
Hey, would you mind if I asked

252
00:10:25,668 --> 00:10:26,887
a quick question
about the race today?

253
00:10:27,061 --> 00:10:28,584
- Sure, go ahead.

254
00:10:28,758 --> 00:10:30,020
- I just noticed that
she ran her first lap

255
00:10:30,194 --> 00:10:32,501
4.2 seconds faster
than her second.

256
00:10:32,675 --> 00:10:34,024
Do you think that
if she evened out

257
00:10:34,198 --> 00:10:36,766
those splits she
could go even faster?

258
00:10:36,940 --> 00:10:39,856
- I would agree with
you except it's the 800.

259
00:10:40,030 --> 00:10:42,729
800 is the most unique
running event there is.

260
00:10:42,903 --> 00:10:45,079
- Ah, I'm not sure I understand.

261
00:10:45,253 --> 00:10:47,081
- You run the 5k in
cross country, right?

262
00:10:47,255 --> 00:10:48,778
- Right.
- That's pacing.

263
00:10:48,952 --> 00:10:51,346
This is an all out
endurance sprint.

264
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,304
Check the world records
in the distance events,

265
00:10:53,478 --> 00:10:56,699
they are basically all even
splits, so I agree with you.

266
00:10:56,873 --> 00:10:59,571
This 800, it's different.

267
00:10:59,746 --> 00:11:01,138
Almost every world record
in that event through

268
00:11:01,312 --> 00:11:04,185
the years has been
with positive splits.

269
00:11:04,359 --> 00:11:08,189
- Uh, well, she did one
and it was her best time.

270
00:11:08,363 --> 00:11:11,322
- She did and it was
and she ran great.

271
00:11:11,496 --> 00:11:13,194
- Yes, she did.

272
00:11:13,368 --> 00:11:14,369
Hey, it was good
to see you again.

273
00:11:14,543 --> 00:11:15,326
- Thank you.

274
00:11:15,500 --> 00:11:16,893
Thanks for coming.

275
00:11:17,067 --> 00:11:18,199
- Glad to be here.
- We appreciate it.

276
00:11:18,373 --> 00:11:20,680
[light music]

277
00:11:25,075 --> 00:11:26,642
- Uh, since 9:45.

278
00:11:26,816 --> 00:11:27,556
- [Chris] Oh, it's
Leah and Tonya.

279
00:11:27,730 --> 00:11:28,513
Hey.
- Hey.

280
00:11:30,864 --> 00:11:31,952
- What's up, guys?

281
00:11:32,126 --> 00:11:33,518
- [Chris] We are celebrating.

282
00:11:33,693 --> 00:11:35,259
- Celebrating what?
- You got engaged.

283
00:11:35,433 --> 00:11:37,784
- No, no, no, no,
not even close.

284
00:11:37,958 --> 00:11:39,960
- Chris!
- I mean, we're close.

285
00:11:40,134 --> 00:11:43,050
We are so close, just not yet.

286
00:11:43,224 --> 00:11:45,400
We are celebrating a great
athletic achievement.

287
00:11:45,574 --> 00:11:47,141
- We know, good job, Brittany.

288
00:11:47,315 --> 00:11:48,969
- Yes, congratulations.

289
00:11:49,143 --> 00:11:50,187
- Uh, you mean good job,
Chris and congratulations?

290
00:11:50,361 --> 00:11:51,928
I broke 1:55 today.

291
00:11:52,102 --> 00:11:53,713
- Are you kidding,
that's nothing.

292
00:11:53,887 --> 00:11:56,237
She broke 2:09 and
beat her school record.

293
00:11:56,411 --> 00:11:57,717
You're just jealous.

294
00:11:57,891 --> 00:11:58,718
- Jealous, why
would I be jealous?

295
00:11:58,892 --> 00:11:59,936
I beat her by 14 seconds.

296
00:12:00,110 --> 00:12:02,722
[girls giggling]

297
00:12:04,854 --> 00:12:08,466
- So, my doc says I gotta
take an extended rest.

298
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,381
Says I gotta take it now.

299
00:12:10,555 --> 00:12:12,644
I told her track
season just started.

300
00:12:12,819 --> 00:12:14,690
- Can your assistants
finish this out for ya?

301
00:12:14,864 --> 00:12:17,214
- They can keep doing what
they're doing and run the team.

302
00:12:17,388 --> 00:12:19,086
My graduate assistant
can help coordinate

303
00:12:19,260 --> 00:12:21,610
the distance runner's workouts,
though he doesn't understand

304
00:12:21,784 --> 00:12:23,873
the different training
I'm giving 'em.

305
00:12:24,047 --> 00:12:25,440
- Can you write the
workouts for 'em then?

306
00:12:25,614 --> 00:12:26,876
- I did that.

307
00:12:27,050 --> 00:12:27,964
I got an idea.

308
00:12:29,661 --> 00:12:30,619
The team is just average with

309
00:12:30,793 --> 00:12:32,664
the exception of Brittany Ward.

310
00:12:32,839 --> 00:12:35,145
She's my only athlete
that can get to national,

311
00:12:35,319 --> 00:12:38,409
she's got a real good
chance of making the podium.

312
00:12:38,583 --> 00:12:42,457
I'd like to recommend we
bring in another coach.

313
00:12:42,631 --> 00:12:44,502
- All right, do you
have someone in mind?

314
00:12:44,676 --> 00:12:49,464
- So, coach Michaels is
having trouble with his heart,

315
00:12:49,638 --> 00:12:50,987
and his doctor said that

316
00:12:51,161 --> 00:12:52,423
he has to stop
coaching immediately.

317
00:12:52,597 --> 00:12:53,860
- I'm sorry to hear that.

318
00:12:54,034 --> 00:12:56,123
- I know, me too.

319
00:12:56,297 --> 00:12:58,081
He doesn't have an
assistant coach to help with

320
00:12:58,255 --> 00:13:02,564
the distance runners and he
asked me if I would help out.

321
00:13:02,738 --> 00:13:06,176
But specifically if I
would coach Brittany.

322
00:13:06,350 --> 00:13:08,700
- Okay, but, how are you
gonna pull all of that off?

323
00:13:08,875 --> 00:13:09,876
- He was thinking
that I could drive

324
00:13:10,050 --> 00:13:11,529
over there three days a week.

325
00:13:11,703 --> 00:13:13,096
And on those days, practice
could just start later

326
00:13:13,270 --> 00:13:16,752
to accommodate my
drive and it would pay

327
00:13:16,926 --> 00:13:18,754
and the school would
cover my expenses,

328
00:13:18,928 --> 00:13:21,801
he's gotten it approved
by the athletic director.

329
00:13:21,975 --> 00:13:23,803
What do you think?

330
00:13:23,977 --> 00:13:25,239
- I think it's
totally up to you.

331
00:13:25,413 --> 00:13:26,980
What do you think?

332
00:13:30,505 --> 00:13:33,769
- In here are all the workouts
I've done with Brittany

333
00:13:33,943 --> 00:13:35,597
and the other runners
so far this spring,

334
00:13:35,771 --> 00:13:37,164
and also what I have planned

335
00:13:37,338 --> 00:13:39,383
for each of them the
rest of the season.

336
00:13:39,557 --> 00:13:40,558
- Thank you.

337
00:13:42,038 --> 00:13:43,692
- If you look at
everybody's times

338
00:13:43,866 --> 00:13:45,128
you'll see that Brittany's
my only distance runner

339
00:13:45,302 --> 00:13:47,957
who can qualify
for the regional.

340
00:13:48,131 --> 00:13:49,741
That's why I want your help.

341
00:13:49,916 --> 00:13:51,613
Even though you
don't coach track,

342
00:13:51,787 --> 00:13:54,964
you've coached Brittany
and she respects you.

343
00:13:55,138 --> 00:13:57,358
I think that's a good fit.

344
00:13:57,532 --> 00:13:59,055
- I appreciate that.

345
00:14:00,927 --> 00:14:03,016
- You have any questions?

346
00:14:03,886 --> 00:14:04,713
- Yes, sir.

347
00:14:06,193 --> 00:14:09,109
Coach, I'll leave
everybody else the same,

348
00:14:09,283 --> 00:14:11,981
but I'd like the liberty to
modify some of Brittany's

349
00:14:12,155 --> 00:14:16,377
workouts as we get into this
if that's okay with you.

350
00:14:16,551 --> 00:14:19,206
- That's okay with me.

351
00:14:19,380 --> 00:14:21,251
I brought you on board because
of what you've accomplished

352
00:14:21,425 --> 00:14:25,168
at Orange Hills, also because
of what Brittany told me.

353
00:14:25,342 --> 00:14:26,300
I trust you.

354
00:14:27,518 --> 00:14:29,346
- Thank you.

355
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:34,090
- Keisha Thompson set the NCCA
record last year in the 800.

356
00:14:34,830 --> 00:14:35,526
She ran a 2:04.6.

357
00:14:37,441 --> 00:14:39,400
She runs for Zion College
and it's about three hours

358
00:14:39,574 --> 00:14:42,185
from here, about two
hours from where you live.

359
00:14:42,359 --> 00:14:46,189
The regional meet is there this
year and also the national.

360
00:14:46,363 --> 00:14:47,974
National moves around to
different parts of the country,

361
00:14:48,148 --> 00:14:50,237
but this year it's
in our region.

362
00:14:50,411 --> 00:14:53,631
Zion has a very nice facility;

363
00:14:53,805 --> 00:14:56,243
The Henry Hall Track
and Soccer Complex.

364
00:14:56,417 --> 00:14:58,767
I know Mr. Hall, he's
a legendary coach,

365
00:14:58,941 --> 00:15:01,204
but he's retired now.

366
00:15:01,378 --> 00:15:04,860
He's built a very
strong program there.

367
00:15:05,034 --> 00:15:07,994
- Coach, what do we
have to do to qualify?

368
00:15:09,996 --> 00:15:11,649
- For Brittany to qualify
for the nationals,

369
00:15:11,823 --> 00:15:16,002
she has to place in the
top four in the regional.

370
00:15:16,176 --> 00:15:19,092
She will be ranked
second behind Keisha.

371
00:15:19,266 --> 00:15:21,224
We have six regions, so
that means 24 runners

372
00:15:21,398 --> 00:15:23,052
would make it to the national.

373
00:15:23,226 --> 00:15:24,880
- Gotcha.

374
00:15:25,054 --> 00:15:27,665
- I've been coaching
for 27 years.

375
00:15:27,839 --> 00:15:29,885
I've never had an
800 meter runner,

376
00:15:30,059 --> 00:15:32,932
male or female, make
it to the podium.

377
00:15:34,194 --> 00:15:36,674
Brittany is our best chance.

378
00:15:36,848 --> 00:15:38,459
- I'll do my best to help.

379
00:15:38,633 --> 00:15:39,590
- Thank you.

380
00:15:40,765 --> 00:15:42,158
I've asked the distance runners

381
00:15:42,332 --> 00:15:43,420
and the coaches to
stay after practice.

382
00:15:43,594 --> 00:15:45,161
Let's go meet 'em.

383
00:15:47,207 --> 00:15:51,124
[runners talking
over each other]

384
00:15:52,255 --> 00:15:54,475
Okay, everybody, listen up.

385
00:15:54,649 --> 00:15:57,652
May I have your
attention please?

386
00:15:57,826 --> 00:15:59,306
This is Coach Donnelly,

387
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,525
she coaches cross country
at Orange Hills Academy.

388
00:16:01,699 --> 00:16:04,964
She was Brittany's coach when
she went to school there.

389
00:16:05,138 --> 00:16:06,835
Let me introduce
you to the staff.

390
00:16:07,009 --> 00:16:08,663
This is Coach Simpson,

391
00:16:08,837 --> 00:16:11,318
she used to run for
me a few years ago.

392
00:16:11,492 --> 00:16:15,322
She coaches the springs,
the 400, and the hurdles.

393
00:16:15,496 --> 00:16:19,456
Coach Rogers, he's the male
counterpart for the same events.

394
00:16:19,630 --> 00:16:22,285
He ran for me in the day, too.

395
00:16:22,459 --> 00:16:27,116
Coach Maxwell handles all field
events and he's our trainer,

396
00:16:29,597 --> 00:16:31,773
and then Jess is my
graduate assistant.

397
00:16:31,947 --> 00:16:35,081
He helps with the
distance runners.

398
00:16:35,255 --> 00:16:36,996
And all of these beautiful
young men and women

399
00:16:37,170 --> 00:16:40,738
are my distance
runners, 800 and up.

400
00:16:40,912 --> 00:16:44,351
Coach Donnelly is temporarily
joining our staff.

401
00:16:44,525 --> 00:16:47,571
She's gonna drive over here
three days a week and basically

402
00:16:47,745 --> 00:16:51,140
she'll get here when you're
done with your workouts.

403
00:16:51,314 --> 00:16:52,707
Brittany, I want
you to wait and work

404
00:16:52,881 --> 00:16:56,537
with Coach Donnelly
personally on those days.

405
00:16:56,711 --> 00:16:59,540
Now, some of you may be thinking
that this is a step down

406
00:16:59,714 --> 00:17:03,587
going from a college coach
back to a high school coach.

407
00:17:03,761 --> 00:17:06,286
I would be thinking
the same thing,

408
00:17:06,460 --> 00:17:10,333
but I can assure you
that you're wrong.

409
00:17:10,507 --> 00:17:12,205
Coach Donnelly will
have all of the workouts

410
00:17:12,379 --> 00:17:15,338
I have planned for
you this season.

411
00:17:15,512 --> 00:17:19,038
Okay, I'm gonna be taking
an extended vacation.

412
00:17:22,171 --> 00:17:24,478
It doesn't mean I'm gonna
relaxing on some beach.

413
00:17:24,652 --> 00:17:26,654
[runners chuckling]

414
00:17:26,828 --> 00:17:28,351
I'm gonna resting at home,

415
00:17:28,525 --> 00:17:31,789
so you can come and
see me any time.

416
00:17:31,963 --> 00:17:34,357
I love each and
every one of you.

417
00:17:34,531 --> 00:17:37,056
I'm gonna miss
seeing you everyday.

418
00:17:37,230 --> 00:17:39,841
[Coach Michaels sighs]

419
00:17:40,015 --> 00:17:42,452
[somber music]

420
00:17:46,674 --> 00:17:47,588
God bless you.

421
00:17:49,068 --> 00:17:50,330
That's it.

422
00:17:50,504 --> 00:17:51,244
That's it.

423
00:17:52,158 --> 00:17:54,943
[muffled talking]

424
00:17:57,772 --> 00:17:59,078
- Hey, coach.

425
00:17:59,252 --> 00:18:02,168
Um, I just wanted
to say thank you

426
00:18:02,342 --> 00:18:04,431
for everything that
you've done for me.

427
00:18:04,605 --> 00:18:06,302
- You're welcome.

428
00:18:06,476 --> 00:18:09,610
Listen, whatever Coach Donnelly
tells you to do, you do it.

429
00:18:09,784 --> 00:18:11,090
Got it?
- Yes, sir.

430
00:18:12,482 --> 00:18:13,483
And I'm gonna work really hard

431
00:18:13,657 --> 00:18:15,398
to make that podium this season.

432
00:18:15,572 --> 00:18:18,314
And if I do, then we did it.

433
00:18:18,488 --> 00:18:20,403
- That's right, we did it.

434
00:18:22,623 --> 00:18:23,624
God bless you.

435
00:18:23,798 --> 00:18:25,887
What do you want, Chris?

436
00:18:26,061 --> 00:18:30,021
- Coach, I just wanna say
thanks for everything and--

437
00:18:30,196 --> 00:18:33,112
- Hey, I couldn't
help but overhear.

438
00:18:34,939 --> 00:18:37,377
What does we did it mean?

439
00:18:37,551 --> 00:18:39,814
- Oh, well, the first
thing Coach Michaels

440
00:18:39,988 --> 00:18:42,773
told us as freshmen is
whenever we run and accomplish

441
00:18:42,947 --> 00:18:46,212
something it's not I
did it, but we did it;

442
00:18:46,386 --> 00:18:49,345
athlete, coach and
the Lord together.

443
00:18:50,825 --> 00:18:52,348
He says to never
leave the Lord out

444
00:18:52,522 --> 00:18:54,481
of anything that
you do in your life.

445
00:18:54,655 --> 00:18:58,789
So, his saying to remind
us of that is, "we did it."

446
00:18:58,963 --> 00:19:00,661
- That's really nice.

447
00:19:00,835 --> 00:19:03,098
[soft music]

448
00:19:05,187 --> 00:19:07,537
Hi, so, what do you say we take

449
00:19:09,060 --> 00:19:11,367
a little road trip
tomorrow morning?

450
00:19:11,541 --> 00:19:12,412
- Yeah?

451
00:19:12,586 --> 00:19:14,631
What'd you have in mind?

452
00:19:14,805 --> 00:19:16,416
- A track meet.

453
00:19:16,590 --> 00:19:17,982
- Track meet?

454
00:19:18,157 --> 00:19:19,506
- Yes, Keisha Thompson
has a home meet

455
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:20,420
and I'd really like
to watch her run.

456
00:19:20,594 --> 00:19:22,030
- How far away?

457
00:19:22,204 --> 00:19:23,336
- Uh, two hours.

458
00:19:24,772 --> 00:19:27,557
[Michael sighs]

459
00:19:27,731 --> 00:19:29,516
- You know, I can't think of
anything else I'd rather do

460
00:19:29,690 --> 00:19:31,648
on a Saturday
morning with my wife.

461
00:19:31,822 --> 00:19:32,823
[light music]

462
00:19:32,997 --> 00:19:36,697
[crowd talking over each other]

463
00:19:43,443 --> 00:19:46,141
[birds chirping]

464
00:19:48,056 --> 00:19:49,710
So, why all the way up?

465
00:19:49,884 --> 00:19:51,233
- Okay, I wanna be able to see

466
00:19:51,407 --> 00:19:53,801
the 100, 200, and
300 meter mark.

467
00:19:55,324 --> 00:19:56,760
Keisha's won the
national championship

468
00:19:56,934 --> 00:19:58,719
in the 800 meter for
three years in a row.

469
00:19:58,893 --> 00:20:01,287
Nobody in any of those races
has even come in under 2:10.

470
00:20:01,461 --> 00:20:03,506
- Meaning?
- She's had no competition.

471
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,291
- Ah.

472
00:20:05,465 --> 00:20:07,162
- Okay, once the race
starts I am going to click

473
00:20:07,336 --> 00:20:08,772
my watch on her
100 meter splits.

474
00:20:08,946 --> 00:20:09,947
Can you write down the
times that you see?

475
00:20:10,121 --> 00:20:11,427
- Sure.
- Thank you.

476
00:20:16,389 --> 00:20:21,350
[gunshot banging]
[crowd cheering]

477
00:20:23,874 --> 00:20:27,095
[light dramatic music]

478
00:20:33,971 --> 00:20:35,886
[crowd applauding]
[crowd cheering]

479
00:20:36,060 --> 00:20:37,410
- [Man] Go Keisha!

480
00:20:38,715 --> 00:20:40,064
Yeah!

481
00:20:40,239 --> 00:20:41,762
- [Woman] Go Keisha!

482
00:20:41,936 --> 00:20:46,593
[crowd applauding]
[crowd cheering]

483
00:20:47,942 --> 00:20:51,250
[light dramatic music]

484
00:20:59,606 --> 00:21:01,695
- Let's go Keisha!
- Let's go Keisha!

485
00:21:01,869 --> 00:21:06,439
[crowd applauding]
[crowd cheering]

486
00:21:11,705 --> 00:21:14,447
[car doors slamming]

487
00:21:16,405 --> 00:21:20,061
- So, if Keisha's four
seconds faster than Brittany,

488
00:21:20,235 --> 00:21:21,497
how does she ever
expect to beat her?

489
00:21:21,671 --> 00:21:22,846
- In all honesty, she can't.

490
00:21:23,020 --> 00:21:24,370
It's too much time to make up.

491
00:21:24,544 --> 00:21:26,502
- So, this was a wasted trip?

492
00:21:26,676 --> 00:21:29,200
- No, I wanted to find out
how Keisha ran her race,

493
00:21:29,375 --> 00:21:31,812
and now we know she goes out
fast and then slows down.

494
00:21:31,986 --> 00:21:33,770
- Well, it didn't look like she
was doing much slowing down.

495
00:21:33,944 --> 00:21:35,424
I mean, she killed everybody.

496
00:21:35,598 --> 00:21:36,512
- Her first lap was
five and half seconds

497
00:21:36,686 --> 00:21:38,297
faster than her second.

498
00:21:38,471 --> 00:21:40,168
And all the other
girls slowed down, too.

499
00:21:40,342 --> 00:21:41,822
- Ah, I see.

500
00:21:41,996 --> 00:21:43,302
- All right, look at her splits.

501
00:21:43,476 --> 00:21:46,174
She gets a little
slower every 100 meters.

502
00:21:46,348 --> 00:21:48,611
There's gotta be
a way to beat her.

503
00:21:48,785 --> 00:21:53,268
- So, we drove two hours
to watch a two minute race?

504
00:21:53,442 --> 00:21:55,792
- We drove two hours to
watch a 2:06.3 minute race.

505
00:21:55,966 --> 00:21:57,881
[both laughing]

506
00:21:58,055 --> 00:21:59,187
[upbeat music]

507
00:21:59,361 --> 00:22:00,580
- Hm?
- Those are cute.

508
00:22:00,754 --> 00:22:01,450
- Okay.

509
00:22:11,112 --> 00:22:13,854
- Hey, Chris just came in.

510
00:22:14,028 --> 00:22:15,464
- [Brittany] What's
he doing here?

511
00:22:15,638 --> 00:22:18,032
- Does he know we're here?

512
00:22:18,206 --> 00:22:19,860
- No.

513
00:22:20,034 --> 00:22:22,123
Hey, let's sneak up on him.

514
00:22:23,211 --> 00:22:26,170
[light dramatic music]

515
00:22:31,306 --> 00:22:32,133
- [Chris] Hi, I'd like
to pick up my shoes.

516
00:22:32,307 --> 00:22:34,483
We had to order them.

517
00:22:34,657 --> 00:22:36,267
- Okay, I'll check.

518
00:22:36,442 --> 00:22:38,269
- Oh, can I ask you something?

519
00:22:38,444 --> 00:22:39,836
I'd like to get a gift
for my girlfriend.

520
00:22:40,010 --> 00:22:41,098
I wonder if you had any ideas?

521
00:22:41,272 --> 00:22:42,883
She runs track for Bethany.

522
00:22:43,057 --> 00:22:44,101
- Um, I'm not sure.

523
00:22:44,275 --> 00:22:45,494
Did you have anything in mind.

524
00:22:45,668 --> 00:22:47,278
- Mm, not really.

525
00:22:47,453 --> 00:22:49,803
Maybe a shirt she
can wear in practice.

526
00:22:49,977 --> 00:22:51,674
- Like a training shirt?

527
00:22:51,848 --> 00:22:54,808
- Yeah, um, do you have a
shirt with writing on it

528
00:22:54,982 --> 00:22:57,506
that says, I don't know, "My
boyfriend is the greatest?"

529
00:22:57,680 --> 00:22:58,681
You know, something
humble like that?

530
00:22:58,855 --> 00:23:00,379
[employee chuckling]

531
00:23:00,553 --> 00:23:01,902
- I don't think we have
anything like that.

532
00:23:02,076 --> 00:23:04,295
- Okay, how about
a shirt that says,

533
00:23:04,470 --> 00:23:08,082
"My love for my boyfriend
is 800 meters wide."

534
00:23:08,256 --> 00:23:10,127
No, wait, I got it.

535
00:23:10,301 --> 00:23:14,393
How about I shirt that says,
"Why are you two spying on me?"

536
00:23:14,567 --> 00:23:17,221
[girls giggling]

537
00:23:17,396 --> 00:23:19,093
What are you up to?

538
00:23:19,267 --> 00:23:20,660
- Hey, I didn't know you
were coming in here tonight.

539
00:23:20,834 --> 00:23:22,096
- Well, I didn't
know you were coming.

540
00:23:22,270 --> 00:23:22,923
I got a message
my shoes came in.

541
00:23:23,097 --> 00:23:24,577
- Ah, I see.

542
00:23:24,751 --> 00:23:26,927
- Actually, she was
gonna get you something.

543
00:23:27,101 --> 00:23:28,494
Right, Brit?

544
00:23:28,668 --> 00:23:30,278
- Uh, yeah.
- Well, that sounds great.

545
00:23:30,452 --> 00:23:32,933
Don't let me stop
you ladies then.

546
00:23:33,107 --> 00:23:35,065
- Um, do you have
a shirt that says,

547
00:23:35,239 --> 00:23:37,067
"My girlfriend is the greatest?"

548
00:23:37,241 --> 00:23:40,027
You know, something
humble like that.

549
00:23:43,291 --> 00:23:45,728
- [Michael] Hey, what you doing?

550
00:23:45,902 --> 00:23:48,209
- Watching some 800 meter
finals from the Olympics

551
00:23:48,383 --> 00:23:49,689
and a couple of
other championships,

552
00:23:49,863 --> 00:23:51,342
trying to see how
these people run.

553
00:23:51,517 --> 00:23:54,302
- Hm, picking up on anything?

554
00:23:54,476 --> 00:23:56,173
- Yeah, Coach Michaels is right.

555
00:23:56,347 --> 00:23:58,524
Every single race has been
won with positive splits,

556
00:23:58,698 --> 00:24:01,875
so the first lap is
faster than the second.

557
00:24:02,049 --> 00:24:03,920
It's just not the
best way to run.

558
00:24:04,094 --> 00:24:05,139
- I mean, do you
know anyone else

559
00:24:05,313 --> 00:24:07,010
who thinks the way you think?

560
00:24:07,184 --> 00:24:11,841
Yes, Dave Wottle, he won the
1972 Olympics with even splits.

561
00:24:12,015 --> 00:24:14,670
He wasn't the favorite, but
he outsmarted the competition.

562
00:24:14,844 --> 00:24:17,543
- Hm, sounds like
your kinda runner.

563
00:24:19,196 --> 00:24:20,241
[light music]

564
00:24:20,415 --> 00:24:22,678
- There's gotta be a better way.

565
00:24:27,161 --> 00:24:28,075
- Hi, coach.

566
00:24:28,249 --> 00:24:29,119
- Hi, Jess, how's it going?

567
00:24:29,293 --> 00:24:30,686
- It is going.

568
00:24:30,860 --> 00:24:32,775
We just finished up
800 meter repeats.

569
00:24:32,949 --> 00:24:34,342
Everyone hit the
pacing Coach Michaels

570
00:24:34,516 --> 00:24:36,344
had written for them
except for Chris.

571
00:24:36,518 --> 00:24:38,172
- What happened with Chris?

572
00:24:38,346 --> 00:24:39,913
- He ran them a lot slower
than he was supposed to.

573
00:24:40,087 --> 00:24:40,957
- Do you know why?

574
00:24:41,131 --> 00:24:42,568
- I do not.

575
00:24:42,742 --> 00:24:44,526
Oh, hey, coach.

576
00:24:44,700 --> 00:24:46,485
Coach Michaels left a small
present for you on his desk.

577
00:24:46,659 --> 00:24:48,269
Be sure to grab it
before you leave.

578
00:24:48,443 --> 00:24:50,010
- A present?
- Yeah.

579
00:24:50,184 --> 00:24:51,402
You'll understand
when you see it.

580
00:24:51,577 --> 00:24:52,621
- Okay, thanks.

581
00:24:55,450 --> 00:24:57,583
[birds chirping]

582
00:24:57,757 --> 00:24:58,497
Hey, Chris, what's up?

583
00:24:58,671 --> 00:24:59,628
Are you injured?

584
00:24:59,802 --> 00:25:01,325
- Oh, you mean my repeats?

585
00:25:01,500 --> 00:25:02,892
Nah, I took it easy
because I wanted to run

586
00:25:03,066 --> 00:25:04,720
with Brittany and push
her along if that's okay?

587
00:25:04,894 --> 00:25:06,200
- Uh, sure, that's okay.

588
00:25:06,374 --> 00:25:07,810
It's just that
Brittany's not doing

589
00:25:07,984 --> 00:25:08,942
the workout the way
you supposed to, so.

590
00:25:09,116 --> 00:25:11,466
- You're kidding?

591
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,469
Okay, yeah, a brilliant
move on my part.

592
00:25:14,643 --> 00:25:15,992
- You know what, you
can run with her.

593
00:25:16,166 --> 00:25:17,124
It'll work out.

594
00:25:20,170 --> 00:25:21,998
- Hey, coach, I'm all
warmed up and ready to go.

595
00:25:22,172 --> 00:25:23,522
- Okay, good.

596
00:25:23,696 --> 00:25:24,653
We're doing 800
meter repeats today

597
00:25:24,827 --> 00:25:27,264
and I want all them at 2:36.

598
00:25:27,438 --> 00:25:29,919
- 2:36, that's pretty slow.

599
00:25:30,093 --> 00:25:34,445
- Give me your first lap in
80 seconds, the second in 76.

600
00:25:34,620 --> 00:25:36,273
- I've never run 'em
like that before.

601
00:25:36,447 --> 00:25:37,753
- Run 'em that way a few times

602
00:25:37,927 --> 00:25:39,015
and you'll see 2:36
isn't too slow.

603
00:25:39,189 --> 00:25:41,757
[light music]

604
00:25:44,847 --> 00:25:47,197
Okay, I want even pacing
on both of these laps.

605
00:25:47,371 --> 00:25:49,591
You're gonna have to 100
meters in 20 seconds,

606
00:25:49,765 --> 00:25:51,593
200 meters in 40 seconds,

607
00:25:51,767 --> 00:25:54,204
300 meters in 60 seconds,

608
00:25:54,378 --> 00:25:56,250
400 meters in 80 seconds.

609
00:25:56,424 --> 00:25:57,643
- Sounds easy.

610
00:25:57,817 --> 00:25:59,383
- Yeah right.

611
00:25:59,558 --> 00:26:01,298
- When you come through and
you start your second lap,

612
00:26:01,472 --> 00:26:02,996
you're gonna have to tell
yourself to pick it up a step

613
00:26:03,170 --> 00:26:05,433
'cause then you've gotta do
100 meters in 19 seconds.

614
00:26:05,607 --> 00:26:08,610
- Tell myself to pick
it up a step, got it.

615
00:26:08,784 --> 00:26:12,309
Uh coach, how many of
these are we gonna do?

616
00:26:15,269 --> 00:26:16,096
- 78, 79, 80!

617
00:26:18,185 --> 00:26:19,229
Good job, right on pace.

618
00:26:19,403 --> 00:26:20,753
Pick it up a step.

619
00:26:23,930 --> 00:26:26,062
So, how long have
you two been dating?

620
00:26:26,236 --> 00:26:27,760
- About two years.

621
00:26:27,934 --> 00:26:29,718
We started dating end of
track season freshman year.

622
00:26:29,892 --> 00:26:33,548
- And I've been letting her
hang around me every since.

623
00:26:33,722 --> 00:26:36,899
I gotta admit, coach, that
workout was different.

624
00:26:37,073 --> 00:26:39,249
- Yeah, we usually do 800
meter repeats pretty hard.

625
00:26:39,423 --> 00:26:41,295
- I don't see how running
800s at the pace we did

626
00:26:41,469 --> 00:26:42,905
helped Brittany get any faster.

627
00:26:43,079 --> 00:26:44,080
It was too slow.

628
00:26:44,254 --> 00:26:46,474
It doesn't make any sense.

629
00:26:46,648 --> 00:26:48,911
- Well, Chris, if there's
anything I've learned

630
00:26:49,085 --> 00:26:50,652
since becoming a Christian
it's that there's a lot

631
00:26:50,826 --> 00:26:53,046
of things in life
that don't make sense.

632
00:26:53,220 --> 00:26:54,613
I can think of examples

633
00:26:54,787 --> 00:26:57,441
of those from running
or Christianity.

634
00:26:57,616 --> 00:26:59,313
- All right, I'm all ears.

635
00:26:59,487 --> 00:27:01,358
- Okay, all right, um, running.

636
00:27:01,532 --> 00:27:03,317
Take today for example.

637
00:27:03,491 --> 00:27:05,580
Brittany ran slower, but look
how many 800 meter repeats

638
00:27:05,754 --> 00:27:08,191
she was able to do and with
limited rests in between.

639
00:27:08,365 --> 00:27:10,324
That's what makes the
workout effective.

640
00:27:10,498 --> 00:27:12,369
She's building strength and
endurance and over time,

641
00:27:12,543 --> 00:27:14,894
those are the things
that make you faster.

642
00:27:15,068 --> 00:27:17,244
- Okay, I'll buy that.

643
00:27:17,418 --> 00:27:18,419
I think.

644
00:27:18,593 --> 00:27:20,377
- Okay and Christianity.

645
00:27:20,551 --> 00:27:25,078
Jesus said, "Whoever will
save his life, shall lose it.

646
00:27:26,949 --> 00:27:29,343
"But whoever will lose his life
for my sake, shall save it."

647
00:27:29,517 --> 00:27:31,301
- I've never really
understood that verse.

648
00:27:31,475 --> 00:27:32,999
What does it mean?

649
00:27:33,173 --> 00:27:37,177
- It means that in
Christianity you win by losing.

650
00:27:37,351 --> 00:27:38,526
- Win by losing?

651
00:27:38,700 --> 00:27:41,137
That doesn't make any sense.

652
00:27:41,311 --> 00:27:43,357
- I think I get it.

653
00:27:43,531 --> 00:27:47,666
As Christians, we surrender
our lives to gain his,

654
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:51,321
and with running you can get
faster by training slower.

655
00:27:51,495 --> 00:27:53,367
So, win by losing.

656
00:27:53,541 --> 00:27:55,325
- Yeah, you got it.

657
00:27:55,499 --> 00:27:57,763
- And now you see why I've been

658
00:27:57,937 --> 00:27:59,590
letting her hang
around me very since.

659
00:27:59,765 --> 00:28:04,726
[light music]
[birds chirping]

660
00:28:07,294 --> 00:28:09,905
[gentle music]

661
00:28:13,387 --> 00:28:15,911
[package rustling]

662
00:28:31,535 --> 00:28:33,189
- Morning, Sharon.

663
00:28:33,363 --> 00:28:35,801
I just got off the phone
with Coach Michaels,

664
00:28:35,975 --> 00:28:37,498
and there's a real good
chance that he will

665
00:28:37,672 --> 00:28:40,980
not be back in the fall, so
it looks like we're gonna

666
00:28:41,154 --> 00:28:42,721
need to start a search.

667
00:28:46,681 --> 00:28:48,988
- [Leah] Coach Donnelly,
you're here early today.

668
00:28:49,162 --> 00:28:50,859
- Yeah, we're on spring
break at Orange Hills,

669
00:28:51,033 --> 00:28:52,643
so I can actually get
here when you guys do.

670
00:28:52,818 --> 00:28:54,123
- Coach, I'm Leah.
- And I'm Tonya.

671
00:28:54,297 --> 00:28:55,168
- I'm Candice.

672
00:28:55,342 --> 00:28:56,778
- Nice to meet you guys.

673
00:28:56,952 --> 00:28:58,693
- We run the four by four
and we were wondering

674
00:28:58,867 --> 00:29:02,523
if you might have any advice
on how we could get faster?

675
00:29:02,697 --> 00:29:04,612
- Oh, well, I'm sure that
your coach is doing everything

676
00:29:04,786 --> 00:29:06,440
she can to help
you run your best.

677
00:29:06,614 --> 00:29:09,051
- She is, but we see how
you're working with Brittany

678
00:29:09,225 --> 00:29:11,097
and it's different than
what she normally does,

679
00:29:11,271 --> 00:29:15,014
so we were just wondering if
maybe you had some advice.

680
00:29:15,188 --> 00:29:16,711
- I'm sorry, I'm not your coach.

681
00:29:16,885 --> 00:29:18,669
You'll just have to
ask Coach Simpson.

682
00:29:18,844 --> 00:29:23,239
- Coach Simpson said it would
be okay if we talked to you.

683
00:29:23,413 --> 00:29:24,545
- Really?
- Yeah.

684
00:29:26,068 --> 00:29:26,939
- Um, okay.

685
00:29:28,462 --> 00:29:30,290
What times are you
guys running right now?

686
00:29:30,464 --> 00:29:32,292
- My best 400 is 54.8.

687
00:29:32,466 --> 00:29:34,250
Janine's run a 58.

688
00:29:34,424 --> 00:29:36,078
- I've run a 56.4.

689
00:29:36,252 --> 00:29:37,732
- 57.5.

690
00:29:37,906 --> 00:29:38,646
- Do you remember what
your 200 meter split

691
00:29:38,820 --> 00:29:40,213
was on that 54.8?

692
00:29:40,387 --> 00:29:43,042
- I ran 26 seconds
for my first 200.

693
00:29:43,216 --> 00:29:44,913
- Okay, and you came
back on almost 29?

694
00:29:45,087 --> 00:29:46,610
- Right.

695
00:29:46,785 --> 00:29:48,351
- Try going out at 27
and maintaining that.

696
00:29:48,525 --> 00:29:50,005
That'll get you down to 54.

697
00:29:50,179 --> 00:29:51,790
Same with you guys,
even out your splits.

698
00:29:51,964 --> 00:29:53,617
- On the 400, you sure?

699
00:29:53,792 --> 00:29:55,097
- Yeah, try it and see.

700
00:29:55,271 --> 00:29:56,969
- Okay.

701
00:29:57,143 --> 00:29:59,145
- And what order are you
guys running your event in?

702
00:29:59,319 --> 00:30:03,976
- I lead off, then Jenny, then
Candice, and Leah anchors.

703
00:30:05,499 --> 00:30:07,936
- Okay, so you're starting
with your second faster runner,

704
00:30:08,110 --> 00:30:09,764
handing off to your two slowest

705
00:30:09,938 --> 00:30:12,288
and then finishing
off with your fastest?

706
00:30:12,462 --> 00:30:14,334
- Right, coach likes
to get a good start.

707
00:30:14,508 --> 00:30:17,076
- Okay, well, I would
try starting with Jenny,

708
00:30:17,250 --> 00:30:20,340
handing off to Candice,
then Tonya, then Leah.

709
00:30:20,514 --> 00:30:21,689
- Why in that order?

710
00:30:21,863 --> 00:30:23,082
- Because you wanna get faster

711
00:30:23,256 --> 00:30:24,257
each time you hand
off the baton.

712
00:30:24,431 --> 00:30:25,519
- Oh, okay.

713
00:30:25,693 --> 00:30:26,912
Well, thanks.

714
00:30:27,086 --> 00:30:28,261
We'll try that.

715
00:30:28,435 --> 00:30:30,524
[keyboard clicking]

716
00:30:30,698 --> 00:30:32,700
[light dramatic music]

717
00:30:32,874 --> 00:30:34,267
- Hey, coach.
- Hey.

718
00:30:43,929 --> 00:30:46,148
Coach Donnelly, do
you have a moment?

719
00:30:46,322 --> 00:30:47,019
- Sure.

720
00:30:48,977 --> 00:30:52,198
- Um, look, we appreciate you
helping Coach Michaels with

721
00:30:52,372 --> 00:30:57,029
his distance runners, but I
don't need any help with mine.

722
00:30:57,943 --> 00:30:59,553
- What are you talking about?

723
00:30:59,727 --> 00:31:02,208
- Well, quite frankly I
don't appreciate you coming

724
00:31:02,382 --> 00:31:04,819
to my relay team,
changing up their order

725
00:31:04,993 --> 00:31:08,431
and then telling them to go
out slower for even splits.

726
00:31:08,605 --> 00:31:12,305
It's a 400 meter run, it's
not a 5k cross country race.

727
00:31:12,479 --> 00:31:14,089
- Coach Simpson, they--

728
00:31:14,263 --> 00:31:15,786
- Plus we don't need a high
school coach coming in here

729
00:31:15,961 --> 00:31:16,875
and making it seem
like we don't know

730
00:31:17,049 --> 00:31:18,441
how to train our athletes.

731
00:31:18,615 --> 00:31:20,443
That's very embarrassing.

732
00:31:21,575 --> 00:31:22,881
Do you understand?

733
00:31:25,144 --> 00:31:27,102
- Yeah, yeah, of course.

734
00:31:28,495 --> 00:31:29,191
- Thank you.

735
00:31:33,630 --> 00:31:36,111
[muffled talking]

736
00:31:43,902 --> 00:31:44,990
- Why'd you do that today?

737
00:31:45,164 --> 00:31:46,817
- Do what?

738
00:31:46,992 --> 00:31:48,950
- Tell Coach Donnelly that
Coach Simpson said it was okay.

739
00:31:49,124 --> 00:31:50,691
- 'Cause I don't
like Coach Simpson.

740
00:31:50,865 --> 00:31:52,432
- That doesn't make it all
right saying what you said.

741
00:31:52,606 --> 00:31:53,955
- It's no big deal.

742
00:31:54,129 --> 00:31:55,522
- [Tonya] Leah, come on, girl.

743
00:31:55,696 --> 00:31:56,958
- Come on, girl, what?

744
00:31:57,132 --> 00:31:59,439
- Tell the truth,
don't tell lies.

745
00:31:59,613 --> 00:32:00,744
- I didn't lie.

746
00:32:00,919 --> 00:32:02,442
- No?

747
00:32:02,616 --> 00:32:04,357
So what was that you
said to Coach Donnelly?

748
00:32:04,531 --> 00:32:06,750
- I didn't lie, I told you
I don't like Coach Simpson,

749
00:32:06,925 --> 00:32:08,839
and that's the truth.

750
00:32:09,014 --> 00:32:10,885
- So, the gun sounds and I
decide to go right for the lead

751
00:32:11,059 --> 00:32:12,365
and my reasoning is
is that both Strong

752
00:32:12,539 --> 00:32:13,844
and Wicoff are in the race,

753
00:32:14,019 --> 00:32:15,281
and those guys are
better than me.

754
00:32:15,455 --> 00:32:16,499
So, I thought let
me grab the lead

755
00:32:16,673 --> 00:32:17,500
and maybe I can hold them off.

756
00:32:17,674 --> 00:32:19,589
Wrong.

757
00:32:19,763 --> 00:32:23,202
I hit a wall after 500 meters,
ended up finishing dead last.

758
00:32:23,376 --> 00:32:26,335
I should've been no
worse than third.

759
00:32:26,509 --> 00:32:28,685
- Yeah, well, Chris, that's
what happens when you try

760
00:32:28,859 --> 00:32:30,209
and run somebody else's race.

761
00:32:30,383 --> 00:32:32,037
- [Chris] What do you mean?

762
00:32:32,211 --> 00:32:34,256
- Well, I would know because
I did the same thing.

763
00:32:34,430 --> 00:32:37,651
When I was 13 I played golf
and I entered into a youth

764
00:32:37,825 --> 00:32:39,696
tournament on my home course,

765
00:32:39,870 --> 00:32:41,742
kids from all the
surrounding counties came in,

766
00:32:41,916 --> 00:32:44,875
I was put in the top foursome
and ranked number one.

767
00:32:45,050 --> 00:32:46,834
God on the first hole,
three other girls

768
00:32:47,008 --> 00:32:49,010
go before me and all
hit great drives.

769
00:32:49,184 --> 00:32:51,056
So, I start getting worried.

770
00:32:51,230 --> 00:32:54,233
I go out and on my first
shot I drive it 20 yards.

771
00:32:54,407 --> 00:32:55,843
Yeah.

772
00:32:56,017 --> 00:32:57,279
I dubbed my next two
shots and ended up

773
00:32:57,453 --> 00:32:59,499
with like a nine
on the first hole.

774
00:32:59,673 --> 00:33:00,891
I lost that tournament
by 12 strokes

775
00:33:01,066 --> 00:33:03,372
even though I was ranked first.

776
00:33:03,546 --> 00:33:06,767
And I went back the next year
when I was 14 and I lead it

777
00:33:06,941 --> 00:33:09,900
wire to wire and ended up
winning my three strokes.

778
00:33:10,075 --> 00:33:13,556
The difference was that
when I was 13 I was looking

779
00:33:13,730 --> 00:33:16,342
at everybody else and
worried what they were doing.

780
00:33:16,516 --> 00:33:18,605
The next year I
focused on my game.

781
00:33:18,779 --> 00:33:20,259
So, you gotta do that.

782
00:33:20,433 --> 00:33:23,349
Focus on your race, you
do what you do best.

783
00:33:23,523 --> 00:33:26,134
Can't expect to win by
running someone else's race.

784
00:33:26,308 --> 00:33:29,529
- Well, I finished last,
so I can attest to that.

785
00:33:29,703 --> 00:33:31,270
[runners laughing]

786
00:33:31,444 --> 00:33:33,141
- All right, you guys,
Jess has your workouts.

787
00:33:33,315 --> 00:33:36,753
Hey, Brittany, I'm not
gonna be here Friday,

788
00:33:36,927 --> 00:33:38,712
so can you meet
Saturday instead?

789
00:33:38,886 --> 00:33:40,714
- Yeah, sure.
- Okay, good.

790
00:33:40,888 --> 00:33:42,194
We're gonna take a little drive

791
00:33:42,368 --> 00:33:44,587
and do a really
important workout.

792
00:33:44,761 --> 00:33:46,850
- Sounds good.
- All right.

793
00:33:47,025 --> 00:33:48,896
I know you recognize this place.

794
00:33:49,070 --> 00:33:50,071
- [Brittany] Yeah,
it's where we run

795
00:33:50,245 --> 00:33:51,725
the state cross country meet.

796
00:33:51,899 --> 00:33:52,726
- That's right, they've
got something here

797
00:33:52,900 --> 00:33:54,597
that's hard to find.

798
00:33:54,771 --> 00:33:58,688
It wasn't apart of your course,
but it is right next to it.

799
00:34:02,997 --> 00:34:05,478
All right, that's 400
meters right there.

800
00:34:05,652 --> 00:34:07,349
You see where I
marked 100 meters,

801
00:34:07,523 --> 00:34:09,830
200, 300, and now 400 meters.

802
00:34:10,918 --> 00:34:12,354
- Right.

803
00:34:12,528 --> 00:34:13,964
- All right, let's
go back to the start,

804
00:34:14,139 --> 00:34:17,272
and talk about how you're
gonna run this thing.

805
00:34:20,536 --> 00:34:22,147
Now, what's special
about this course

806
00:34:22,321 --> 00:34:24,627
is that it's slightly
uphill the entire way.

807
00:34:24,801 --> 00:34:26,803
Each time you pass a flag,
I need you to tell yourself

808
00:34:26,977 --> 00:34:28,588
to speed it up a little, okay?

809
00:34:28,762 --> 00:34:31,112
First 100 meters,
run at about 20%.

810
00:34:31,286 --> 00:34:33,636
Your second you're
gonna pick it up to 40%.

811
00:34:33,810 --> 00:34:38,032
Third, ramp it to 60% and
finish your last one at 80%.

812
00:34:38,206 --> 00:34:39,729
You don't have to
run all out, okay?

813
00:34:39,903 --> 00:34:41,862
The main thing is, each
time you pass a flag,

814
00:34:42,036 --> 00:34:44,778
you have to tell yourself
to pick it up a step, okay?

815
00:34:44,952 --> 00:34:45,996
- [Brittany] Got it.

816
00:34:46,171 --> 00:34:47,650
- I'm gonna go about half way.

817
00:34:47,824 --> 00:34:50,000
From there I can get your
100, 200, and 300 splits,

818
00:34:50,175 --> 00:34:51,611
but when you run
across at the 400,

819
00:34:51,785 --> 00:34:53,830
throw your arms up so
I know you're done.

820
00:34:54,004 --> 00:34:56,311
You're gonna walk
back to recover and
you're gonna go again.

821
00:34:56,485 --> 00:34:58,008
- Got it.

822
00:34:58,183 --> 00:35:00,402
Uh, coach, how many of
these are we gonna do?

823
00:35:00,576 --> 00:35:05,233
[Courtney laughing]
[light music]

824
00:35:18,942 --> 00:35:19,900
- All right, way to go girl.

825
00:35:20,074 --> 00:35:22,642
Pick it up to 60%.

826
00:35:22,816 --> 00:35:25,123
[light music]

827
00:35:47,232 --> 00:35:48,711
- Hello, this is John Duncan,

828
00:35:48,885 --> 00:35:50,496
the Athletic Director
at Bethany University.

829
00:35:50,670 --> 00:35:52,150
- Yes, sir, Karen Price,

830
00:35:52,324 --> 00:35:54,326
Assistant Principal
Orange Hills Academy.

831
00:35:54,500 --> 00:35:55,849
- Well, it seems we
have one of your coaches

832
00:35:56,023 --> 00:35:57,242
helping us out over
here this spring.

833
00:35:57,416 --> 00:35:59,722
- Yes, I heard, Coach Donnelly.

834
00:35:59,896 --> 00:36:02,160
- Yeah, I'd like to ask you
about her for a moment if I may.

835
00:36:02,334 --> 00:36:04,074
- [Karen] Sure, how can I help?

836
00:36:04,249 --> 00:36:05,685
- Well, I'd like to know

837
00:36:05,859 --> 00:36:07,165
if you could give
her a recommendation?

838
00:36:07,339 --> 00:36:08,862
- Can I recommend
Coach Donnelly?

839
00:36:09,036 --> 00:36:10,864
- Yes, ma'am.

840
00:36:11,038 --> 00:36:13,910
- Oh, Mr. Duncan, I've been
an administrator for 14 years

841
00:36:14,084 --> 00:36:17,087
in three different schools
both public and private,

842
00:36:17,262 --> 00:36:19,960
and Coach Donnelly is
as fine as they come.

843
00:36:20,134 --> 00:36:22,963
- Well, that's high praise.

844
00:36:23,137 --> 00:36:24,617
I'm glad to hear that.

845
00:36:24,791 --> 00:36:26,967
- May I ask what this is about?

846
00:36:27,141 --> 00:36:28,882
- It looks like our
cross country coach

847
00:36:29,056 --> 00:36:31,885
is going on an extended leave,
so we're starting to look

848
00:36:32,059 --> 00:36:33,800
for somebody to take his place.

849
00:36:33,974 --> 00:36:35,628
- I see.

850
00:36:35,802 --> 00:36:37,717
- I'm aware that Coach Donnelly
has her Master's Degree?

851
00:36:37,891 --> 00:36:39,327
- Yes, she does.

852
00:36:39,501 --> 00:36:40,894
- Well, I appreciate
the good word about her.

853
00:36:41,068 --> 00:36:42,025
Thank you for your time.

854
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:43,070
- Yes, sir.

855
00:36:43,244 --> 00:36:44,289
Goodbye.

856
00:36:44,463 --> 00:36:47,553
[light dramatic music]

857
00:36:49,381 --> 00:36:50,947
- [Announcer] Shecky
Greene now drops back.

858
00:36:51,121 --> 00:36:52,122
Coming on a bit is Forego.

859
00:36:52,297 --> 00:36:54,081
Our Native on the outside.

860
00:36:54,255 --> 00:36:55,735
Now and they're in the stretch.

861
00:36:55,909 --> 00:36:57,693
It's Secretariat,
Secretariat on the outside

862
00:36:57,867 --> 00:36:58,912
to take the lead.

863
00:36:59,086 --> 00:37:00,305
Sham holding in second.

864
00:37:00,479 --> 00:37:01,915
It's Secretariat moving away.

865
00:37:02,089 --> 00:37:03,569
He has it by two and a half.

866
00:37:03,743 --> 00:37:06,876
Sham and then on the
outside Our Native.

867
00:37:07,050 --> 00:37:08,922
At the wire it's going
to be Secretariat.

868
00:37:09,096 --> 00:37:11,229
He wins it by two lengths.

869
00:37:14,710 --> 00:37:16,973
- I just saw a perfect race.

870
00:37:17,147 --> 00:37:19,802
Your best time is 3.9
seconds behind Keisha's.

871
00:37:19,976 --> 00:37:23,763
Now, in an 800 meter
race that's a long way.

872
00:37:23,937 --> 00:37:24,894
- Yeah, I know.

873
00:37:25,068 --> 00:37:26,766
- So, we've got two tasks.

874
00:37:26,940 --> 00:37:29,377
One, we've gotta get you
two to three seconds faster.

875
00:37:29,551 --> 00:37:32,685
Two, we've gotta get Keisha
one to two seconds slower.

876
00:37:32,859 --> 00:37:34,295
- What?

877
00:37:34,469 --> 00:37:35,949
- Our first task is
to get you faster.

878
00:37:36,123 --> 00:37:37,907
We're gonna change the
way you run your race.

879
00:37:38,081 --> 00:37:39,518
You're not gonna be going out
fast and then slowing down

880
00:37:39,692 --> 00:37:41,607
on your second lap the
way that you're used to.

881
00:37:41,781 --> 00:37:44,218
You're actually gonna be
doing the exact opposite.

882
00:37:44,392 --> 00:37:45,785
Secretariat is
the horse that won

883
00:37:45,959 --> 00:37:48,788
the 1973 Kentucky
Derby in record time.

884
00:37:48,962 --> 00:37:50,746
The race is a mile
and a quarter long,

885
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:54,837
and each quarter mile he got
faster than the one before.

886
00:37:55,011 --> 00:37:56,404
These are his splits.

887
00:37:56,578 --> 00:37:57,884
The science behind
running says you maximize

888
00:37:58,058 --> 00:38:00,321
your ability with
a 51 to 49% split.

889
00:38:00,495 --> 00:38:01,888
Meaning, starting out slower

890
00:38:02,062 --> 00:38:05,326
and getting slightly
faster as you go.

891
00:38:05,500 --> 00:38:07,502
It's exactly what
Secretariat did,

892
00:38:07,676 --> 00:38:09,635
it's exactly what
you're gonna do.

893
00:38:09,809 --> 00:38:12,028
All right, I want you to
run your first 100 meters

894
00:38:12,202 --> 00:38:16,032
in 16 seconds with 3/10ths
of a second on either side.

895
00:38:16,206 --> 00:38:17,904
Now, it may take a few times
to get the pacing down,

896
00:38:18,078 --> 00:38:19,384
so let's try a few.

897
00:38:19,558 --> 00:38:21,951
Start in lane two for me.

898
00:38:22,125 --> 00:38:25,738
[light dramatic music]

899
00:38:25,912 --> 00:38:27,348
Set.

900
00:38:27,522 --> 00:38:29,959
[whistle blows]

901
00:38:30,133 --> 00:38:32,614
[gentle music]

902
00:38:44,974 --> 00:38:46,454
All right, 15 seconds.

903
00:38:46,628 --> 00:38:48,195
Let's try it again.

904
00:38:48,369 --> 00:38:50,937
[whistle blows]

905
00:39:00,512 --> 00:39:02,252
17 seconds, try again.

906
00:39:02,427 --> 00:39:04,994
[whistle blows]

907
00:39:08,563 --> 00:39:09,956
16.8.

908
00:39:10,130 --> 00:39:12,698
[whistle blows]

909
00:39:16,310 --> 00:39:17,093
16.7.

910
00:39:18,181 --> 00:39:20,749
[whistle blows]

911
00:39:24,013 --> 00:39:27,234
[light dramatic music]

912
00:39:28,670 --> 00:39:29,410
15.3

913
00:39:32,195 --> 00:39:34,633
- Coach, I can't do it.

914
00:39:34,807 --> 00:39:35,721
It's too hard.

915
00:39:40,856 --> 00:39:43,511
- Brittany, do you remember
the story in the Bible

916
00:39:43,685 --> 00:39:45,252
about the rich young
ruler who asked Jesus

917
00:39:45,426 --> 00:39:48,081
what he had to do to
have eternal life?

918
00:39:48,255 --> 00:39:50,039
- [Brittany] Yeah.

919
00:39:50,213 --> 00:39:51,780
- That story kind of asks
the ultimate question, right?

920
00:39:51,954 --> 00:39:54,566
What do you have to do
to have eternal life?

921
00:39:54,740 --> 00:39:57,395
And you'll remember in the
story it says that he asked

922
00:39:57,569 --> 00:40:01,616
Jesus and Jesus told him,
he didn't like the answer,

923
00:40:01,790 --> 00:40:05,403
so he walked away and the Bible
said that he was sorrowful.

924
00:40:05,577 --> 00:40:07,579
Think about that.

925
00:40:07,753 --> 00:40:11,583
Here's somebody asking
how to have eternal life,

926
00:40:11,757 --> 00:40:14,281
he was standing there
staring right at it,

927
00:40:14,455 --> 00:40:16,675
and he walked away.

928
00:40:16,849 --> 00:40:17,589
Why?

929
00:40:19,808 --> 00:40:22,507
'Cause he didn't
want it bad enough.

930
00:40:23,725 --> 00:40:25,292
You wanna try this again?

931
00:40:25,466 --> 00:40:28,382
[triumphant music]

932
00:40:36,434 --> 00:40:37,957
15.5

933
00:40:38,131 --> 00:40:40,655
[whistle blows]

934
00:40:43,919 --> 00:40:44,616
16.5.

935
00:41:02,677 --> 00:41:03,461
16 seconds.

936
00:41:08,161 --> 00:41:10,468
[light music]

937
00:41:19,738 --> 00:41:21,130
- Hey.

938
00:41:21,304 --> 00:41:22,349
Your favorite thing
to do as of late.

939
00:41:22,523 --> 00:41:24,873
- I know, I'm sorry.

940
00:41:25,047 --> 00:41:27,397
I found Keisha's championship
race from two years ago,

941
00:41:27,572 --> 00:41:29,574
and the one from
last year and she ran

942
00:41:29,748 --> 00:41:31,663
them both exactly the same way.

943
00:41:31,837 --> 00:41:33,621
There was nobody near
her, they were easy wins.

944
00:41:33,795 --> 00:41:35,841
- And she's the one
you need to slow down?

945
00:41:36,015 --> 00:41:37,756
- Right.

946
00:41:37,930 --> 00:41:39,453
- You know, I've never heard
of a runner intentionally

947
00:41:39,627 --> 00:41:42,761
slow down so that a slower
one can beat her, have you?

948
00:41:42,935 --> 00:41:43,675
- No.

949
00:41:45,590 --> 00:41:47,026
- So, how do you intend
on beating her then?

950
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:49,376
[light dramatic music]

951
00:41:49,550 --> 00:41:50,812
- I have an idea.

952
00:41:56,296 --> 00:42:00,169
- The last two years we ran
together everyday in practice.

953
00:42:00,343 --> 00:42:02,215
Now I hardly see you.

954
00:42:02,389 --> 00:42:04,609
- Coach Donnelly said you
can come to my practices.

955
00:42:04,783 --> 00:42:07,873
- Yeah, but I gotta
run with the guys.

956
00:42:08,047 --> 00:42:10,266
I don't know why Coach
Michaels brought her on anyway.

957
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,312
You could just run with us.

958
00:42:12,486 --> 00:42:13,618
I'm just sayin'.

959
00:42:16,272 --> 00:42:17,535
- What's wrong?

960
00:42:18,927 --> 00:42:19,667
- Nothing.

961
00:42:21,016 --> 00:42:22,322
I just don't understand why

962
00:42:22,496 --> 00:42:23,628
you get your own
personal trainer.

963
00:42:23,802 --> 00:42:25,412
It's like we don't matter.

964
00:42:25,586 --> 00:42:27,327
- [Brittany] That's not
true and you know it.

965
00:42:27,501 --> 00:42:28,981
- Oh, how come I don't get
my own personal trainer then?

966
00:42:29,155 --> 00:42:31,157
I'll tell you why.

967
00:42:31,331 --> 00:42:34,856
'Cause I'm not going
to regionals or
nationals, that's why.

968
00:42:35,030 --> 00:42:36,249
- Chris, Coach Donnelly is my

969
00:42:36,423 --> 00:42:38,686
high school cross country coach.

970
00:42:38,860 --> 00:42:40,035
She's the one who
convinced me to go out

971
00:42:40,209 --> 00:42:41,646
for track in the first place.

972
00:42:41,820 --> 00:42:43,169
I wasn't going to.

973
00:42:46,085 --> 00:42:49,567
If I didn't have track
I wouldn't have you.

974
00:42:52,831 --> 00:42:53,571
- Yeah.

975
00:42:54,963 --> 00:42:56,356
- That was hard.

976
00:42:56,530 --> 00:42:57,139
- Really, I thought
the test was easy.

977
00:42:57,313 --> 00:42:58,053
I bet I aced it.

978
00:42:58,227 --> 00:42:59,925
- Yeah, right.

979
00:43:00,099 --> 00:43:01,448
- No, really, I bet I
got every question right.

980
00:43:01,622 --> 00:43:02,449
- How'd you know all that?

981
00:43:02,623 --> 00:43:04,059
- I studied.

982
00:43:04,233 --> 00:43:06,148
- There is no way
you knew all of that.

983
00:43:06,322 --> 00:43:08,629
- Okay look, she gave
the same test yesterday.

984
00:43:08,803 --> 00:43:10,457
- So?
- So, one of my friends

985
00:43:10,631 --> 00:43:12,067
snapped a picture.

986
00:43:12,241 --> 00:43:13,591
- You cheated?

987
00:43:13,765 --> 00:43:16,158
- No, I had advanced
information.

988
00:43:21,250 --> 00:43:22,600
- 32.1, good job.

989
00:43:22,774 --> 00:43:24,253
I want five in a
row just like that.

990
00:43:24,427 --> 00:43:25,515
- Five?

991
00:43:25,690 --> 00:43:27,082
- Yeah, make sure they're all

992
00:43:27,256 --> 00:43:28,301
within 4/10th of a
second on either side.

993
00:43:28,475 --> 00:43:30,216
You gotta get the pacing down.

994
00:43:30,390 --> 00:43:33,219
- Coach, I can't run five
200s in a row at 32 seconds.

995
00:43:33,393 --> 00:43:34,916
- Uh, yes, you can.

996
00:43:35,090 --> 00:43:37,527
And we're gonna stay
here till you do.

997
00:43:37,702 --> 00:43:39,486
[whistle blows]
[light dramatic music]

998
00:43:39,660 --> 00:43:41,053
33, try again.

999
00:43:41,227 --> 00:43:43,272
[whistle blows]

1000
00:43:43,446 --> 00:43:45,405
32.9, half a second off.

1001
00:43:48,016 --> 00:43:50,105
[whistle blows]

1002
00:43:50,279 --> 00:43:52,934
[whistle blows]

1003
00:43:53,108 --> 00:43:56,111
[whistle blows]

1004
00:43:56,285 --> 00:43:58,810
[whistle blows]

1005
00:44:00,289 --> 00:44:02,117
32.2, great job.

1006
00:44:02,291 --> 00:44:03,858
Four in a row, one more.

1007
00:44:04,032 --> 00:44:05,251
- Coach, I can't.

1008
00:44:05,425 --> 00:44:06,687
I'm too tired.

1009
00:44:06,861 --> 00:44:07,732
- Yes, you can.

1010
00:44:07,906 --> 00:44:08,820
- No, I can't.

1011
00:44:10,517 --> 00:44:11,997
That's too many.

1012
00:44:12,171 --> 00:44:13,607
- Brittany, this is exactly
how you're gonna feel

1013
00:44:13,781 --> 00:44:15,087
in the final 200
meters at nationals.

1014
00:44:15,261 --> 00:44:16,436
You're gonna be this tired.

1015
00:44:16,610 --> 00:44:18,003
So, what are you gonna do?

1016
00:44:18,177 --> 00:44:20,483
Are you gonna stop or
are you gonna keep going?

1017
00:44:20,658 --> 00:44:23,530
[Brittany sighs]

1018
00:44:23,704 --> 00:44:26,620
[triumphant music]

1019
00:44:42,723 --> 00:44:46,074
[Brittany panting]
- What was my time?

1020
00:44:46,248 --> 00:44:48,729
- Most athletes would have
given up a half hour ago.

1021
00:44:48,903 --> 00:44:50,252
- Did I get it?

1022
00:44:50,426 --> 00:44:51,993
- [Courtney] Most
athletes would have quit.

1023
00:44:52,167 --> 00:44:53,691
- What was my time?

1024
00:44:55,170 --> 00:44:55,910
- 31.9.

1025
00:44:58,347 --> 00:45:01,089
There's an inter satisfaction
that comes when you work hard,

1026
00:45:01,263 --> 00:45:03,352
when you don't give up and
when you give it your best,

1027
00:45:03,526 --> 00:45:04,440
and I'm really proud of you.

1028
00:45:04,614 --> 00:45:05,877
Good job.
- Thanks.

1029
00:45:07,139 --> 00:45:08,618
- All right, take tomorrow off.

1030
00:45:08,793 --> 00:45:10,229
I'm not gonna see you Friday,

1031
00:45:10,403 --> 00:45:12,144
but I want you to get
a workout in, okay?

1032
00:45:12,318 --> 00:45:15,016
I want you to do 10 100
meters in a row at 16 seconds.

1033
00:45:15,190 --> 00:45:16,148
You gotta get the pacing down.

1034
00:45:16,322 --> 00:45:18,106
- Okay.

1035
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:20,718
- Have Chris time you, text
me when you've done it.

1036
00:45:20,892 --> 00:45:22,937
- All right.
- Hey, you did it.

1037
00:45:24,156 --> 00:45:24,852
- We did it.

1038
00:45:26,724 --> 00:45:29,901
- Hey.
- Hey, so, I got a call

1039
00:45:30,075 --> 00:45:32,251
from the athletic director
at Bethany this afternoon

1040
00:45:32,425 --> 00:45:33,687
and they are
looking for somebody

1041
00:45:33,861 --> 00:45:35,558
to coach cross
country this fall.

1042
00:45:35,733 --> 00:45:38,257
And they need a distance
coach for track in the spring,

1043
00:45:38,431 --> 00:45:40,650
they've got a science
position available.

1044
00:45:40,825 --> 00:45:42,304
- You're serious?

1045
00:45:42,478 --> 00:45:45,525
- Yeah and he asked me
if I was interested.

1046
00:45:45,699 --> 00:45:48,180
- Just like that?
- Just like that.

1047
00:45:48,354 --> 00:45:49,964
- [Michael] So, what
did you tell him?

1048
00:45:50,138 --> 00:45:53,228
- Well, I told him I had to
talk to you about it first.

1049
00:45:53,402 --> 00:45:54,839
- Wow.
- Yeah.

1050
00:45:55,013 --> 00:45:57,624
- I just didn't expect it.
- Yeah.

1051
00:45:57,798 --> 00:46:00,061
- Okay, so what do you think?

1052
00:46:00,235 --> 00:46:03,630
- Well, my first thought
was that Coach Michaels

1053
00:46:03,804 --> 00:46:07,286
is either retiring or that
his condition's more serious

1054
00:46:07,460 --> 00:46:10,550
than he's letting on,
and I'm flattered.

1055
00:46:12,117 --> 00:46:14,336
I just, I don't know,
Michael, I don't know.

1056
00:46:14,510 --> 00:46:16,338
- My girlfriend, she's
training to run like a horse.

1057
00:46:16,512 --> 00:46:18,340
[runners laughing]

1058
00:46:18,514 --> 00:46:19,777
We're all practicing to run
and she's learning to gallop.

1059
00:46:19,951 --> 00:46:21,691
[runners laughing]
- Will you stop?

1060
00:46:21,866 --> 00:46:23,302
- I'm just kidding.

1061
00:46:23,476 --> 00:46:25,652
- Well, it's not funny.

1062
00:46:25,826 --> 00:46:27,697
- You know that horse
set a record in 1973

1063
00:46:27,872 --> 00:46:30,048
that still stands today.

1064
00:46:30,222 --> 00:46:32,224
Can't think of a runner
that's done that.

1065
00:46:32,398 --> 00:46:34,095
[Courtney snapping]
- Ooh.

1066
00:46:34,269 --> 00:46:38,970
[Chris snapping]
[runners chuckling]

1067
00:46:39,971 --> 00:46:42,625
[light dramatic music]

1068
00:46:44,497 --> 00:46:47,108
[birds chirping]

1069
00:46:47,282 --> 00:46:48,370
- Hey.

1070
00:46:48,544 --> 00:46:49,328
- Hey.

1071
00:46:50,982 --> 00:46:52,200
- You okay?

1072
00:46:52,374 --> 00:46:53,158
- Yeah.

1073
00:46:56,770 --> 00:46:58,990
[Brittany sighs]

1074
00:46:59,164 --> 00:47:02,167
I just hate it when
he makes fun of me.

1075
00:47:03,472 --> 00:47:04,822
He does that a lot.

1076
00:47:09,174 --> 00:47:12,046
- When I was a freshman in
college I dated a guy that made

1077
00:47:12,220 --> 00:47:16,007
jokes about me like that
and I hated it, too.

1078
00:47:16,181 --> 00:47:20,141
We were together for six
months before we split up.

1079
00:47:20,315 --> 00:47:23,623
And when I was a sophomore
I started dating Michael,

1080
00:47:23,797 --> 00:47:28,280
and he's never made fun of me
and embarrassed me not once.

1081
00:47:30,151 --> 00:47:33,154
I'm really glad I'm
married to Michael.

1082
00:47:36,679 --> 00:47:39,117
- Why does he do that?

1083
00:47:39,291 --> 00:47:43,382
- He's jealous and joking
like that is his way

1084
00:47:43,556 --> 00:47:47,038
of covering up his own
insecurity and hurt.

1085
00:47:48,822 --> 00:47:51,216
Brit, he may say
that he loves you,

1086
00:47:51,390 --> 00:47:53,609
I just think he probably
has a little bit to learn

1087
00:47:53,783 --> 00:47:56,699
about what real love and
commitment are all about.

1088
00:47:56,874 --> 00:47:59,006
- What makes you say that?

1089
00:47:59,180 --> 00:48:02,009
- Well, the Bible says
love isn't envious.

1090
00:48:02,183 --> 00:48:05,752
So, you should be happy
for somebody's success

1091
00:48:05,926 --> 00:48:10,452
and not jealous of it
when you really love them.

1092
00:48:10,626 --> 00:48:14,892
- Well, then how will I know
when he really loves me?

1093
00:48:17,938 --> 00:48:19,461
[Courtney sighs]

1094
00:48:19,635 --> 00:48:21,333
- You'll know.

1095
00:48:21,507 --> 00:48:22,987
[light dramatic music]

1096
00:48:23,161 --> 00:48:26,120
We can start whenever
you're ready, okay?

1097
00:48:32,126 --> 00:48:33,649
- Uh, not tonight.

1098
00:48:33,823 --> 00:48:36,739
I just got in and I
have a lot of homework.

1099
00:48:39,177 --> 00:48:41,440
No, I don't want you
to help me study.

1100
00:48:41,614 --> 00:48:44,834
[keys jingling]

1101
00:48:45,009 --> 00:48:49,361
Look, I just need to get a
shower and get to work, okay?

1102
00:48:49,535 --> 00:48:53,017
Um, no, no, I'm just
gonna eat something here.

1103
00:48:54,540 --> 00:48:57,195
[Brittany sighs]

1104
00:48:58,457 --> 00:49:02,069
I just don't feel like
talking right now, okay?

1105
00:49:03,636 --> 00:49:04,724
I need to go.

1106
00:49:05,986 --> 00:49:07,553
Chris, I need to go.

1107
00:49:12,123 --> 00:49:12,906
Bye.

1108
00:49:19,130 --> 00:49:22,089
[Brittany sighs]

1109
00:49:22,263 --> 00:49:24,483
- You're gonna run your first
200 meters in 32 seconds,

1110
00:49:24,657 --> 00:49:27,834
the second in 31.5,
the third in 31,

1111
00:49:28,008 --> 00:49:29,531
and your final 200
meters at 30 seconds.

1112
00:49:29,705 --> 00:49:32,839
You do that, you're
in at 2:04.5.

1113
00:49:33,013 --> 00:49:34,710
- That would beat her record
by a 10th of a second.

1114
00:49:34,884 --> 00:49:36,408
- Yeah, but I'm not
trying to beat her record,

1115
00:49:36,582 --> 00:49:39,324
I'm just trying to give you
a chance to win the race.

1116
00:49:39,498 --> 00:49:40,673
Today, we're gonna work
on your first 400 meters,

1117
00:49:40,847 --> 00:49:41,717
so let's go to work.

1118
00:49:41,891 --> 00:49:45,112
[light dramatic music]

1119
00:49:50,291 --> 00:49:51,553
- [Woman] Would you
like something to drink?

1120
00:49:51,727 --> 00:49:53,120
- I'm okay, thank you so much.

1121
00:49:53,294 --> 00:49:54,252
I was just gonna
stop by for a minute.

1122
00:49:54,426 --> 00:49:55,731
- Okay.
- Thank you.

1123
00:49:56,645 --> 00:49:58,821
- Hey, Coach Donnelly.

1124
00:49:58,996 --> 00:50:01,302
Forgive me for not getting up.

1125
00:50:01,476 --> 00:50:04,175
Please come on in and sit down.

1126
00:50:04,349 --> 00:50:06,525
- I thought I might stop
by to give you an update

1127
00:50:06,699 --> 00:50:09,919
on how Brittany was doing,
but first, how are you doing?

1128
00:50:10,094 --> 00:50:12,139
- Well, not doing too good.

1129
00:50:13,923 --> 00:50:16,317
Doc says I'm gonna need surgery.

1130
00:50:16,491 --> 00:50:17,188
- I'm sorry.

1131
00:50:18,754 --> 00:50:22,062
- Me too.
[Coach Michaels chuckling]

1132
00:50:22,236 --> 00:50:23,672
So, how are things going?

1133
00:50:23,846 --> 00:50:25,152
- Brittany's doing well.

1134
00:50:25,326 --> 00:50:26,762
We're working on
strength right now

1135
00:50:26,936 --> 00:50:29,504
with some hill workouts,
she's learning pacing.

1136
00:50:29,678 --> 00:50:32,333
It's not easy, but you
know she's a hard worker.

1137
00:50:32,507 --> 00:50:33,987
And I think the
combination of things

1138
00:50:34,161 --> 00:50:36,903
that we're doing is gonna
give her a good chance.

1139
00:50:37,077 --> 00:50:39,079
- Give her a good chance?

1140
00:50:40,646 --> 00:50:42,082
- To beat Keisha.

1141
00:50:43,910 --> 00:50:46,826
- Nobody's expecting a miracle.

1142
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,742
I just wanted to
make the podium.

1143
00:50:49,916 --> 00:50:51,222
- I do too, sir.

1144
00:50:51,396 --> 00:50:53,572
I'm just aiming
for that top spot.

1145
00:50:56,662 --> 00:50:59,143
Uh, I just wanted to
stop by for a minute.

1146
00:50:59,317 --> 00:51:00,927
I still gotta make
the long trip home,

1147
00:51:01,101 --> 00:51:03,234
but we'll be praying for you.

1148
00:51:04,887 --> 00:51:06,324
I'm not just saying that.

1149
00:51:06,498 --> 00:51:09,675
My husband and I, we have
been praying for you.

1150
00:51:09,849 --> 00:51:10,850
- Thank you.

1151
00:51:15,115 --> 00:51:16,682
Thank you very much.

1152
00:51:17,639 --> 00:51:18,423
Hey, coach?

1153
00:51:19,989 --> 00:51:23,950
Mind if I ask you, you
been a Christian long?

1154
00:51:24,124 --> 00:51:25,473
- Uh, yes, sir.

1155
00:51:25,647 --> 00:51:28,085
Since I was a junior
in high school.

1156
00:51:28,259 --> 00:51:31,305
- You take Christianity
very seriously, don't you?

1157
00:51:31,479 --> 00:51:32,698
- Yes, sir, I do.

1158
00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:36,223
- Do you ever think about death?

1159
00:51:38,356 --> 00:51:39,966
- Occasionally.

1160
00:51:40,140 --> 00:51:42,403
- I've been thinking about
it quite a bit lately.

1161
00:51:42,577 --> 00:51:45,189
[somber music]

1162
00:51:45,363 --> 00:51:48,409
And even though I'm a Christian,

1163
00:51:48,583 --> 00:51:52,109
death is something I am
not looking forward to.

1164
00:51:54,372 --> 00:51:56,025
- I understand.

1165
00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:58,419
- What do you believe, coach?

1166
00:52:00,552 --> 00:52:02,641
- What do I believe?

1167
00:52:02,815 --> 00:52:04,904
- About life and death, God.

1168
00:52:10,692 --> 00:52:15,132
- Well, I believe that the
God of the Bible created me,

1169
00:52:16,002 --> 00:52:17,960
and I was born a sinner.

1170
00:52:19,092 --> 00:52:21,312
And that means one day I'll die.

1171
00:52:23,705 --> 00:52:28,188
I also believe that Jesus is
God, that he came to Earth,

1172
00:52:30,234 --> 00:52:32,932
he died on the
cross for our sins.

1173
00:52:34,629 --> 00:52:36,370
He rose and he's seated at
the right hand of the Father

1174
00:52:36,544 --> 00:52:38,329
and he'll return one day.

1175
00:52:40,244 --> 00:52:43,029
I believe that faith in Christ

1176
00:52:43,203 --> 00:52:45,466
is the only way to go to heaven.

1177
00:52:47,642 --> 00:52:50,254
I believe that there's nothing,

1178
00:52:50,428 --> 00:52:54,823
nothing more important than
following him in this life.

1179
00:52:54,997 --> 00:52:57,783
- That is very well
said, young lady.

1180
00:52:59,828 --> 00:53:00,786
- Thank you.

1181
00:53:03,049 --> 00:53:05,007
- Thanks for coming by.

1182
00:53:05,182 --> 00:53:06,661
- I hope you get better, sir.

1183
00:53:06,835 --> 00:53:08,533
- Thank you for
helping with Brittany.

1184
00:53:08,707 --> 00:53:09,969
- You're welcome.

1185
00:53:11,579 --> 00:53:14,016
[somber music]

1186
00:53:16,018 --> 00:53:16,802
Coach?

1187
00:53:19,413 --> 00:53:21,415
I think she can beat her.

1188
00:53:39,085 --> 00:53:41,087
- Can I ask you a question?

1189
00:53:41,261 --> 00:53:42,306
- You just did.

1190
00:53:43,916 --> 00:53:46,223
- Still not talking to Chris?

1191
00:53:47,963 --> 00:53:50,096
- I'm taking a break from Chris.

1192
00:53:50,270 --> 00:53:51,663
- Why?

1193
00:53:51,837 --> 00:53:53,317
- Why do you ask?

1194
00:53:53,491 --> 00:53:56,624
- 'Cause he keeps
asking me what's wrong.

1195
00:53:58,147 --> 00:54:01,107
- I told him we needed
a break from each other.

1196
00:54:01,281 --> 00:54:03,588
- Yeah, but he doesn't know why.

1197
00:54:06,721 --> 00:54:08,854
- That's for him to figure out.

1198
00:54:09,028 --> 00:54:12,249
[light dramatic music]

1199
00:54:15,904 --> 00:54:18,298
- 1:33.8, okay, good job.

1200
00:54:18,472 --> 00:54:20,344
Half a second faster
than you wanna be,

1201
00:54:20,518 --> 00:54:21,606
but you still got
something left, right?

1202
00:54:21,780 --> 00:54:23,521
- Yeah.

1203
00:54:23,695 --> 00:54:25,000
- Good, this is where those
hill workouts are gonna come in.

1204
00:54:25,174 --> 00:54:26,524
I know you might
not like doing them,

1205
00:54:26,698 --> 00:54:27,960
but the final 200
meters of the race,

1206
00:54:28,134 --> 00:54:29,570
you're gonna be glad you did.

1207
00:54:29,744 --> 00:54:30,658
- Okay.

1208
00:54:30,832 --> 00:54:32,399
- Take a full recovery.

1209
00:54:32,573 --> 00:54:36,055
We're gonna go again, 600
meters in 1:34.5 this time.

1210
00:54:36,229 --> 00:54:37,578
- Yeah, I think I've only
got a couple of jumpers

1211
00:54:37,752 --> 00:54:39,319
that are going to
regionals this year.

1212
00:54:39,493 --> 00:54:40,494
That's about it.

1213
00:54:40,668 --> 00:54:42,148
- Short workout today, Brittany?

1214
00:54:42,322 --> 00:54:45,020
- Uh, yeah, just three
600s, but all at race pace.

1215
00:54:45,194 --> 00:54:46,544
- You got your first crack

1216
00:54:46,718 --> 00:54:47,632
at Keisha coming up
in the regionals.

1217
00:54:47,806 --> 00:54:48,937
Think you can catch her?

1218
00:54:49,111 --> 00:54:50,199
- I don't know.

1219
00:54:50,374 --> 00:54:52,158
She's pretty far ahead of me.

1220
00:54:52,332 --> 00:54:53,725
- We'll be pulling for you.

1221
00:54:53,899 --> 00:54:55,292
- Thanks.

1222
00:54:55,466 --> 00:54:56,771
- I hear you've been
working the hills.

1223
00:54:56,945 --> 00:54:59,426
- Yeah, Coach Donnelly's
pretty big on that.

1224
00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:01,602
- It's good for ya, help
build some strength.

1225
00:55:01,776 --> 00:55:04,039
- She's trying to get me a
couple of seconds faster.

1226
00:55:04,213 --> 00:55:05,432
- That would still leave
a couple of seconds

1227
00:55:05,606 --> 00:55:07,347
to gain though, wouldn't it?

1228
00:55:07,521 --> 00:55:09,218
- Well, yeah.

1229
00:55:09,393 --> 00:55:10,437
But Coach Donnelly
said she's gonna

1230
00:55:10,611 --> 00:55:12,396
try and slow Keisha down.

1231
00:55:12,570 --> 00:55:14,267
- Wait, what was that?

1232
00:55:14,441 --> 00:55:17,749
- She's gonna try
and slow Keisha down.

1233
00:55:17,923 --> 00:55:21,318
I don't know how or
what she means by that.

1234
00:55:23,102 --> 00:55:24,146
Well, see ya.

1235
00:55:26,018 --> 00:55:26,714
- Bye, Brittany.

1236
00:55:26,888 --> 00:55:27,628
- Bye.

1237
00:55:30,152 --> 00:55:31,328
Slow down a runner?

1238
00:55:32,938 --> 00:55:33,765
- Beats me.

1239
00:55:36,985 --> 00:55:39,466
[muffled talking]

1240
00:55:41,250 --> 00:55:43,209
- Save one second for
her and who knows.

1241
00:55:43,383 --> 00:55:46,343
[light dramatic music]

1242
00:55:49,084 --> 00:55:50,390
- See ya.
- See ya.

1243
00:55:52,740 --> 00:55:53,959
See you guys.

1244
00:55:54,133 --> 00:55:55,961
- See ya, Jess.
- Later, Jess.

1245
00:56:01,053 --> 00:56:03,534
- Coach Donnelly we were
just talking with Brittany

1246
00:56:03,708 --> 00:56:06,232
and she mentioned you had a
plan to slow down a runner.

1247
00:56:06,406 --> 00:56:07,581
I've been around
track a long time,

1248
00:56:07,755 --> 00:56:08,756
and I've never heard a coach say

1249
00:56:08,930 --> 00:56:10,541
they can do something like that.

1250
00:56:10,715 --> 00:56:12,630
Especially with somebody
like Keisha Thompson.

1251
00:56:12,804 --> 00:56:14,501
You do know she's
a three time champ?

1252
00:56:14,675 --> 00:56:17,330
- I'm well aware of
her success, yes.

1253
00:56:17,504 --> 00:56:19,288
- I saw Keisha run
the final last year.

1254
00:56:19,463 --> 00:56:20,899
She'd have to trip
and fall before

1255
00:56:21,073 --> 00:56:22,683
anybody would have a
chance to beat her.

1256
00:56:22,857 --> 00:56:24,816
Is that what you have in mind?

1257
00:56:24,990 --> 00:56:25,773
- No.

1258
00:56:27,688 --> 00:56:29,908
- Okay, well, I didn't know
'cause I've been to some

1259
00:56:30,082 --> 00:56:32,998
high school meets and
stranger things have happened.

1260
00:56:33,172 --> 00:56:37,132
- Well, I can assure you the
thought never crossed my mind.

1261
00:56:37,306 --> 00:56:38,960
- Please don't do anything

1262
00:56:39,134 --> 00:56:41,833
to disgrace the
name of this school.

1263
00:56:48,187 --> 00:56:49,710
Slow down a runner.

1264
00:56:49,884 --> 00:56:51,538
What's Keisha gonna do?

1265
00:56:51,712 --> 00:56:54,367
Run right up to the finish
line, stop just before crossing

1266
00:56:54,541 --> 00:56:56,282
and go, "Come on,
Brittany, it's all yours."

1267
00:56:56,456 --> 00:56:59,285
[coaches laughing]

1268
00:57:04,725 --> 00:57:06,553
- No, she hasn't
said anything yet,

1269
00:57:06,727 --> 00:57:08,163
but I don't believe for a moment

1270
00:57:08,337 --> 00:57:10,122
she's going to turn it down.

1271
00:57:10,296 --> 00:57:12,559
She'll get to coach
at the college level,

1272
00:57:12,733 --> 00:57:14,126
teach a couple of
entry level courses,

1273
00:57:14,300 --> 00:57:15,867
and her pay will double.

1274
00:57:16,041 --> 00:57:19,740
Well, maybe not double,
but it'll surely go up.

1275
00:57:19,914 --> 00:57:21,350
You could always
match funds with some

1276
00:57:21,525 --> 00:57:24,745
of your principal salary
and keep her here.

1277
00:57:24,919 --> 00:57:26,617
Oh, here's the clincher.

1278
00:57:26,791 --> 00:57:29,968
Her husband's an accountant
and their firm has two offices.

1279
00:57:30,142 --> 00:57:31,491
Guess where the other one is?

1280
00:57:31,665 --> 00:57:33,972
[light music]

1281
00:57:34,146 --> 00:57:36,627
We're going to need to look
for a nice science teacher,

1282
00:57:36,801 --> 00:57:39,194
a new cross country
coach and a golf coach,

1283
00:57:39,368 --> 00:57:43,198
because Coach Donnelly is not
going to be here in the fall.

1284
00:57:43,372 --> 00:57:46,419
Yeah, I'll be sorry
to see her go, too.

1285
00:57:48,247 --> 00:57:50,379
[Coach Simpson applauding]

1286
00:57:50,554 --> 00:57:53,339
- [Coach Simpson]
Nice job, ladies.

1287
00:57:56,951 --> 00:57:58,257
- [Jess] How's it going?

1288
00:57:58,431 --> 00:57:59,998
- It's not.

1289
00:58:00,172 --> 00:58:02,000
We've got one meet left
to qualify for regionals.

1290
00:58:02,174 --> 00:58:03,218
My relay team has a lot of time

1291
00:58:03,392 --> 00:58:04,350
to make up if we wanna get in.

1292
00:58:04,524 --> 00:58:05,569
- How much?

1293
00:58:05,743 --> 00:58:06,961
- A little over three seconds.

1294
00:58:07,135 --> 00:58:08,963
- Ouch.
- Yeah.

1295
00:58:09,137 --> 00:58:11,226
Right now I've got Leah
going in the open 400,

1296
00:58:11,400 --> 00:58:13,054
but she's my only runner.

1297
00:58:13,228 --> 00:58:14,273
Relay team is a long shot.

1298
00:58:14,447 --> 00:58:16,188
- Can Leah make the national?

1299
00:58:16,362 --> 00:58:18,190
- No, no, not a chance.

1300
00:58:18,364 --> 00:58:20,453
I mean, at least she's
going to regional.

1301
00:58:20,627 --> 00:58:22,368
I can't seem to get these
girls to go any faster

1302
00:58:22,542 --> 00:58:24,239
or put together four good legs.

1303
00:58:24,413 --> 00:58:26,981
- Well, why don't you try a
couple of different things then?

1304
00:58:27,155 --> 00:58:29,201
- Oh, grad assistant
has some advice.

1305
00:58:29,375 --> 00:58:31,072
This should be good.

1306
00:58:31,246 --> 00:58:32,987
- Have you considered having
your girls go out slower

1307
00:58:33,161 --> 00:58:36,425
the first 200, so that
they can come back faster?

1308
00:58:36,600 --> 00:58:38,384
- Even splits for
a 400 meter run?

1309
00:58:38,558 --> 00:58:40,691
- Yeah, something like that.

1310
00:58:40,865 --> 00:58:42,214
And change up the
order of who leads off.

1311
00:58:42,388 --> 00:58:43,824
Start with your slowest runner

1312
00:58:43,998 --> 00:58:45,957
and always hand off
to a faster runner.

1313
00:58:46,131 --> 00:58:47,654
- You sound just like
that high school coach.

1314
00:58:47,828 --> 00:58:49,613
- That's where I got it from.

1315
00:58:49,787 --> 00:58:52,050
- What did she do, talk to
everybody about my relay team?

1316
00:58:52,224 --> 00:58:53,747
- She didn't talk to me.

1317
00:58:53,921 --> 00:58:55,444
- Well, how do you know
what you just said then?

1318
00:58:55,619 --> 00:58:56,576
- Your girls went up
to her and asked her

1319
00:58:56,750 --> 00:58:58,012
if she had any advice for them?

1320
00:58:58,186 --> 00:58:59,405
- Wait, what?

1321
00:58:59,579 --> 00:59:01,146
My girls asked her?

1322
00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:02,408
- Yeah.

1323
00:59:02,582 --> 00:59:04,149
- How do you know that?

1324
00:59:04,323 --> 00:59:06,499
- I was standing right
there when it happened.

1325
00:59:06,673 --> 00:59:08,893
- Wait, so they asked for
her advice on what exactly?

1326
00:59:09,067 --> 00:59:10,416
- How they could get faster.

1327
00:59:10,590 --> 00:59:12,113
- And Coach Donnelly told them?

1328
00:59:12,287 --> 00:59:13,462
- Not at first.

1329
00:59:13,637 --> 00:59:15,334
- What do you mean not at first?

1330
00:59:15,508 --> 00:59:17,249
Explain.

1331
00:59:17,423 --> 00:59:18,642
- She won't answer the phone,
when I see her on campus

1332
00:59:18,816 --> 00:59:20,034
she says she doesn't wanna talk.

1333
00:59:20,208 --> 00:59:21,775
What's going on?

1334
00:59:21,949 --> 00:59:22,733
- I don't know.
- But you're her roommate,

1335
00:59:22,907 --> 00:59:23,821
you must know something.

1336
00:59:23,995 --> 00:59:25,866
- Well, I'm sorry, I don't.

1337
00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:28,303
- Something happened
I don't know about.

1338
00:59:28,477 --> 00:59:31,785
- Could be.
[somber music]

1339
00:59:33,091 --> 00:59:35,441
- I never knew how much
I really cared for her.

1340
00:59:35,615 --> 00:59:36,703
- Well, you should
tell her that.

1341
00:59:36,877 --> 00:59:37,748
- How?

1342
00:59:37,922 --> 00:59:39,358
She won't talk to me.

1343
00:59:43,318 --> 00:59:45,756
[somber music]

1344
01:00:06,864 --> 01:00:08,082
[fist knocking]
- Coach Donnelly,

1345
01:00:08,256 --> 01:00:09,910
can I talk to you for a minute?

1346
01:00:10,084 --> 01:00:10,824
- Sure.

1347
01:00:12,913 --> 01:00:14,436
Is everything okay?

1348
01:00:16,525 --> 01:00:21,226
- When we talked to you a
while ago about our relay team,

1349
01:00:23,141 --> 01:00:24,621
Leah told you that Coach
Simpson said it was okay,

1350
01:00:24,795 --> 01:00:27,711
but Coach Simpson didn't
know anything about it.

1351
01:00:27,885 --> 01:00:29,713
And I felt guilty every since,

1352
01:00:29,887 --> 01:00:34,239
and I wanted to come to
you sooner, but, I'm sorry.

1353
01:00:34,413 --> 01:00:36,415
- Thank you for telling me.

1354
01:00:36,589 --> 01:00:39,070
- Coach, Leah's
not doing so good.

1355
01:00:40,158 --> 01:00:41,725
- What do you mean?

1356
01:00:41,899 --> 01:00:44,423
- Well, she lies,
she cheats in school,

1357
01:00:44,597 --> 01:00:48,862
and she doesn't seem to have
any conviction about anything,

1358
01:00:49,036 --> 01:00:52,649
and I'm scared that she's
not a real Christian.

1359
01:00:54,128 --> 01:00:56,043
- Why'd she come to
school here then?

1360
01:00:56,217 --> 01:00:58,132
- She has a partial scholarship
and her father went here,

1361
01:00:58,306 --> 01:00:59,612
and he's a pastor.

1362
01:01:03,616 --> 01:01:06,010
- And you're not sure
she's a believer?

1363
01:01:06,184 --> 01:01:08,142
- She's herded her whole life,

1364
01:01:08,316 --> 01:01:11,145
but I'm not sure she's
ever really herded.

1365
01:01:11,319 --> 01:01:13,191
- I see.

1366
01:01:13,365 --> 01:01:16,977
- I'm sorry that we lied to
you and I went along with it.

1367
01:01:17,151 --> 01:01:19,153
But I'm a Christian, coach,
I struggle with things,

1368
01:01:19,327 --> 01:01:21,590
but I'm a Christian.

1369
01:01:21,765 --> 01:01:24,811
And Leah's my friend,
she just needs help.

1370
01:01:28,032 --> 01:01:30,512
- Well, Tonya, thank
you for coming to me.

1371
01:01:30,687 --> 01:01:34,125
[spoon clinking]

1372
01:01:34,299 --> 01:01:37,215
- So, we can transition over

1373
01:01:37,389 --> 01:01:39,783
to the new office
whenever we're ready.

1374
01:01:39,957 --> 01:01:41,654
It's totally up to us.

1375
01:01:41,828 --> 01:01:44,265
- Wow, that, that's
good to know.

1376
01:01:44,439 --> 01:01:47,225
- Yeah, seems like everything's
falling into place.

1377
01:01:47,399 --> 01:01:49,009
- Yeah, it really does.

1378
01:01:49,183 --> 01:01:52,360
- So, the decision's all yours.

1379
01:01:52,534 --> 01:01:55,276
- No, the decision's ours.

1380
01:01:55,450 --> 01:01:57,801
- No, it doesn't matter
to me either way.

1381
01:01:57,975 --> 01:01:59,803
I can stay here or go there.

1382
01:01:59,977 --> 01:02:01,630
I mean, this decision's all up
to you, miss Courtney Smith.

1383
01:02:01,805 --> 01:02:04,155
[light music]

1384
01:02:04,329 --> 01:02:06,853
[rain pattering]

1385
01:02:10,117 --> 01:02:11,597
[keyboard clicking]

1386
01:02:11,771 --> 01:02:12,772
- [Courtney] Hey, Jess,
how'd it go today?

1387
01:02:12,946 --> 01:02:13,599
- It didn't.

1388
01:02:13,773 --> 01:02:14,556
No one ran.

1389
01:02:14,731 --> 01:02:16,123
- How come?

1390
01:02:16,297 --> 01:02:18,560
- We don't run when
it's raining hard.

1391
01:02:18,735 --> 01:02:19,866
- Is Brittany here?

1392
01:02:20,040 --> 01:02:21,955
- Yeah, she's in there.

1393
01:02:23,783 --> 01:02:25,611
- He's so cool with that dance.

1394
01:02:25,785 --> 01:02:27,613
[fist knocking]

1395
01:02:27,787 --> 01:02:29,528
- Coach, I didn't think
you'd be coming today.

1396
01:02:29,702 --> 01:02:32,096
- You do know they run track
meets in the rain, right?

1397
01:02:32,270 --> 01:02:34,446
- Well, yeah, but it's
raining pretty hard.

1398
01:02:34,620 --> 01:02:36,665
Coach Michaels doesn't make
us practice when it rains.

1399
01:02:36,840 --> 01:02:41,758
[light music]
[rain pattering]

1400
01:02:56,685 --> 01:02:59,558
- [Chris] Yeah, I
mean it's this year.

1401
01:03:01,125 --> 01:03:02,604
- Hey, coach, does
your high school team

1402
01:03:02,779 --> 01:03:04,519
run in the rain like that?

1403
01:03:04,693 --> 01:03:06,608
- [Brittany] Yeah, as long
as it's not lightning we run.

1404
01:03:06,783 --> 01:03:08,349
- But why?

1405
01:03:08,523 --> 01:03:09,960
- Because we're runners
and that's what we do.

1406
01:03:10,134 --> 01:03:12,745
I mean, nationals
could be in the rain.

1407
01:03:12,919 --> 01:03:14,442
- It was pouring,
that's ridiculous.

1408
01:03:14,616 --> 01:03:16,053
Why would you run in the rain?

1409
01:03:16,227 --> 01:03:17,663
- Do you really wanna know?

1410
01:03:17,837 --> 01:03:18,620
- Sure.

1411
01:03:20,666 --> 01:03:23,277
- Seriously, Chris, do
you really wanna know?

1412
01:03:23,451 --> 01:03:24,235
- Yeah, sure.

1413
01:03:28,500 --> 01:03:31,808
- Can I ask you, are your
parents together or divorced?

1414
01:03:31,982 --> 01:03:33,635
- They're together.

1415
01:03:33,810 --> 01:03:35,202
- Anybody else here have
parents that are divorced?

1416
01:03:35,376 --> 01:03:36,769
Raise your hand.

1417
01:03:39,598 --> 01:03:40,817
Yeah, mine too.

1418
01:03:42,775 --> 01:03:43,732
Anybody here with
their hand up wish

1419
01:03:43,907 --> 01:03:46,474
that never would have happened?

1420
01:03:46,648 --> 01:03:49,913
[somber music]

1421
01:03:50,087 --> 01:03:53,351
Look, chances are you're all
gonna get married someday.

1422
01:03:53,525 --> 01:03:56,528
You'll pledge to
make a commitment for
life and there will

1423
01:03:56,702 --> 01:04:00,227
come a day in your marriage
that you experience rain.

1424
01:04:00,401 --> 01:04:03,796
You're gonna have a really
big decision to make.

1425
01:04:03,970 --> 01:04:05,624
You can choose to do
the easy thing like

1426
01:04:05,798 --> 01:04:09,758
our parents did and get
divorced or you could choose

1427
01:04:09,933 --> 01:04:13,153
to stay together in the rain.

1428
01:04:13,327 --> 01:04:16,809
Chris, it's really easy to
run when the weather is nice.

1429
01:04:16,983 --> 01:04:19,768
It's easy to follow the
Lord when everything's good,

1430
01:04:19,943 --> 01:04:22,554
what about when it's not?

1431
01:04:22,728 --> 01:04:25,209
It's not fun to run in the rain,

1432
01:04:25,383 --> 01:04:27,428
and it's not easy to follow
the Lord when nothing's

1433
01:04:27,602 --> 01:04:31,824
going right and you're
wondering where God is.

1434
01:04:31,998 --> 01:04:35,697
But regardless of the
conditions, you still run.

1435
01:04:37,395 --> 01:04:41,138
And regardless of the
circumstances, you still follow.

1436
01:04:41,312 --> 01:04:43,662
That's why we run in the rain.

1437
01:04:48,319 --> 01:04:50,103
Brittany, good job today.

1438
01:04:51,757 --> 01:04:53,280
I'll see you next week.

1439
01:04:58,329 --> 01:05:01,332
[light dramatic music]

1440
01:05:06,163 --> 01:05:08,469
[light music]

1441
01:05:24,964 --> 01:05:27,532
[phone buzzing]

1442
01:05:42,982 --> 01:05:46,029
[light dramatic music]

1443
01:05:58,737 --> 01:06:01,305
[phone buzzing]

1444
01:06:02,741 --> 01:06:05,135
[gentle music]

1445
01:06:20,106 --> 01:06:21,847
- [McKenzie] Where
are you going?

1446
01:06:22,021 --> 01:06:23,066
- To see Chris.

1447
01:06:25,633 --> 01:06:27,418
[door slamming]

1448
01:06:27,592 --> 01:06:30,160
[light music]

1449
01:06:36,122 --> 01:06:38,690
- Okay, your surgery is
scheduled for Saturday the 18th.

1450
01:06:38,864 --> 01:06:40,344
Here's some information for you.

1451
01:06:40,518 --> 01:06:41,780
I want you to come in
a couple days early,

1452
01:06:41,954 --> 01:06:43,303
so plan on being
here on the 16th.

1453
01:06:43,477 --> 01:06:46,002
- Saturday is the
day of the national.

1454
01:06:46,176 --> 01:06:46,872
What time's the surgery?

1455
01:06:47,046 --> 01:06:48,178
- Two o'clock.

1456
01:06:49,875 --> 01:06:53,922
- One of my runners should be
in the 800 meter final then.

1457
01:06:54,097 --> 01:06:55,707
They're gonna run
her race at 2:30.

1458
01:06:55,881 --> 01:06:57,317
I wanted to listen
to it over the phone.

1459
01:06:57,491 --> 01:06:59,189
- Sorry, coach.

1460
01:06:59,363 --> 01:07:00,929
- Can't you push it to
another day or time?

1461
01:07:01,104 --> 01:07:03,758
- Jeff, the line
waiting to get a table

1462
01:07:03,932 --> 01:07:07,327
at this hospital
is 800 meters long.

1463
01:07:07,501 --> 01:07:09,242
- I'd rather listen to the race.

1464
01:07:09,416 --> 01:07:12,898
- And I would rather not
have to perform this surgery.

1465
01:07:13,072 --> 01:07:15,335
- Can we do it in the morning?

1466
01:07:15,509 --> 01:07:17,555
- I play golf on
Saturday mornings.

1467
01:07:17,729 --> 01:07:18,817
- Didn't I tell you
golf is the most

1468
01:07:18,991 --> 01:07:21,037
frustrating game ever invented?

1469
01:07:21,211 --> 01:07:23,169
- You better hope I
have a good round,

1470
01:07:23,343 --> 01:07:26,390
so I don't take my
frustration out on you.

1471
01:07:31,090 --> 01:07:32,744
[papers rustling]

1472
01:07:32,918 --> 01:07:36,530
[clipboard thudding]

1473
01:07:36,704 --> 01:07:37,836
[fist knocking]

1474
01:07:38,010 --> 01:07:38,793
- Hey.

1475
01:07:40,534 --> 01:07:42,493
- May I speak with you a moment?

1476
01:07:42,667 --> 01:07:43,450
- Sure.

1477
01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:48,499
- I, uh, I owe you
a little apology.

1478
01:07:50,109 --> 01:07:52,416
There's been a misunderstanding.

1479
01:07:52,590 --> 01:07:55,854
I'm sorry for the way
I spoke to you before.

1480
01:07:56,028 --> 01:07:57,334
I thought you had
approached my girls

1481
01:07:57,508 --> 01:07:59,466
and given them
advice on how to run.

1482
01:07:59,640 --> 01:08:01,816
I did not know that they
approached you and told you

1483
01:08:01,990 --> 01:08:04,732
I said it was all right
to share your thoughts.

1484
01:08:04,906 --> 01:08:07,605
They were wrong to say that.

1485
01:08:07,779 --> 01:08:10,260
I apologize for
my hasty response.

1486
01:08:12,523 --> 01:08:14,307
- No apology necessary.

1487
01:08:16,222 --> 01:08:20,183
- Leah and I have had a
little tension all year.

1488
01:08:20,357 --> 01:08:23,273
- I understand, I have
been there before.

1489
01:08:24,535 --> 01:08:25,275
- Thanks.

1490
01:08:26,537 --> 01:08:27,277
- Yeah.

1491
01:08:29,453 --> 01:08:33,021
- They missed qualifying for
regionals by 9/10 of a second.

1492
01:08:33,196 --> 01:08:34,371
They all tried to
run even splits,

1493
01:08:34,545 --> 01:08:37,548
and each ran their best time.

1494
01:08:37,722 --> 01:08:39,245
And I like the idea
of getting faster

1495
01:08:39,419 --> 01:08:42,553
each time you hand
off the baton.

1496
01:08:42,727 --> 01:08:45,295
All four girls are back next
year and they're pretty pumped.

1497
01:08:45,469 --> 01:08:49,168
- That's great, I'm
really happy for you guys.

1498
01:08:50,604 --> 01:08:52,128
- Good luck with
Brittany in the regional.

1499
01:08:52,302 --> 01:08:53,085
- Thanks.

1500
01:08:54,695 --> 01:08:57,263
[light music]

1501
01:09:05,837 --> 01:09:06,316
Hey.
- Hey.

1502
01:09:08,187 --> 01:09:10,450
- Hardly anybody around, did
you just finish your workout?

1503
01:09:10,624 --> 01:09:11,538
- [Leah] Yeah.

1504
01:09:12,887 --> 01:09:14,280
- Ready for the regional?

1505
01:09:14,454 --> 01:09:16,195
- Uh, yeah, I guess,
but I don't stand

1506
01:09:16,369 --> 01:09:17,979
a chance at nationals.

1507
01:09:18,154 --> 01:09:19,198
- Sure you do.

1508
01:09:19,372 --> 01:09:20,721
- Uh, no, I don't.

1509
01:09:22,332 --> 01:09:23,681
- The only girls that
don't stand a chance

1510
01:09:23,855 --> 01:09:26,423
at nationals are the
ones that didn't qualify.

1511
01:09:26,597 --> 01:09:28,033
- I ranked seventh out of eight

1512
01:09:28,207 --> 01:09:30,644
and only the top four get in.

1513
01:09:30,818 --> 01:09:33,343
- Okay, but what if
three of those girls

1514
01:09:33,517 --> 01:09:35,606
got disqualified,
what if they cheated?

1515
01:09:35,780 --> 01:09:37,173
- Cheated?

1516
01:09:37,347 --> 01:09:40,350
- Yeah, you know,
steroids, doping.

1517
01:09:40,524 --> 01:09:42,395
- It wouldn't surprise
me if some of them are.

1518
01:09:42,569 --> 01:09:44,310
- Or what if some of
their coaches submitted

1519
01:09:44,484 --> 01:09:47,400
faster times than
they actually ran?

1520
01:09:50,142 --> 01:09:51,274
- That's be wrong.

1521
01:09:51,448 --> 01:09:53,580
- The cheating or the lying?

1522
01:09:55,800 --> 01:09:56,583
- Both.

1523
01:09:57,845 --> 01:09:59,456
- Oh.

1524
01:09:59,630 --> 01:10:03,155
That reminds me, in my
class I have this thing

1525
01:10:03,329 --> 01:10:04,939
that I say to my students
before every test.

1526
01:10:05,113 --> 01:10:08,552
I say, "Get it wrong
before you cheat."

1527
01:10:08,726 --> 01:10:12,077
You know, that way you can
feel good about yourself.

1528
01:10:12,251 --> 01:10:13,513
Sleep at night.

1529
01:10:13,687 --> 01:10:15,123
That's my only rule.

1530
01:10:15,298 --> 01:10:17,517
Get it wrong before you cheat.

1531
01:10:17,691 --> 01:10:19,476
- That's a good rule.

1532
01:10:19,650 --> 01:10:21,042
- Yeah.

1533
01:10:21,217 --> 01:10:23,871
[birds chirping]

1534
01:10:27,745 --> 01:10:28,833
What year are you?

1535
01:10:29,007 --> 01:10:29,790
- Junior.

1536
01:10:32,228 --> 01:10:35,448
[light dramatic music]

1537
01:10:37,711 --> 01:10:40,105
- Bethany University and Orange
Hills Academy where I teach,

1538
01:10:40,279 --> 01:10:42,760
they exist for the same purpose.

1539
01:10:42,934 --> 01:10:46,285
That's to teach
people about Christ.

1540
01:10:46,459 --> 01:10:49,767
We've all lied and
we've all cheated,

1541
01:10:49,941 --> 01:10:52,335
I know I have in my life.

1542
01:10:52,509 --> 01:10:55,555
But that's why we need Christ.

1543
01:10:55,729 --> 01:10:57,383
When I was a junior in high
school this girl told me

1544
01:10:57,557 --> 01:11:00,081
that Jesus died for all my sins.

1545
01:11:03,955 --> 01:11:05,652
She lead me to Christ.

1546

[keyboard clicking]

1547
01:11:29,763 --> 01:11:31,896
- Uh, coach, do
you have a minute?

1548
01:11:32,070 --> 01:11:32,853
- Sure.

1549
01:11:37,031 --> 01:11:38,294
Leah, you okay?

1550
01:11:40,252 --> 01:11:42,298
- Coach, I owe you an apology.

1551
01:11:44,343 --> 01:11:47,825
You and like half of
the people on campus.

1552
01:11:47,999 --> 01:11:50,088
[muffled talking]

1553
01:11:50,262 --> 01:11:52,525
[light music]

1554
01:12:02,927 --> 01:12:03,449
- Brittany.

1555
01:12:07,018 --> 01:12:07,758
- I'm so nervous.

1556
01:12:07,932 --> 01:12:09,150
- I understand.

1557
01:12:10,064 --> 01:12:11,414
[Courtney sighs]

1558
01:12:11,588 --> 01:12:12,893
You're not gonna
run your race today

1559
01:12:13,067 --> 01:12:13,633
the way we've been
training for it.

1560
01:12:13,807 --> 01:12:15,156
- What?

1561
01:12:15,331 --> 01:12:16,332
- Keisha's gonna
go out for the lead

1562
01:12:16,506 --> 01:12:18,377
and I want you to go with her.

1563
01:12:18,551 --> 01:12:20,858
Stay right on her shoulder for
600 meters and then slow down

1564
01:12:21,032 --> 01:12:22,468
and make sure you
finish in the top four.

1565
01:12:22,642 --> 01:12:24,165
- Wait, why do you
want me to do that?

1566
01:12:24,340 --> 01:12:26,472
- Stay with Keisha for
600 meters, slow down,

1567
01:12:26,646 --> 01:12:28,300
make sure you finish
in the top four.

1568
01:12:28,474 --> 01:12:29,693
I'll see you at the
end of the race.

1569
01:12:29,867 --> 01:12:30,868
- Coach?

1570
01:12:31,042 --> 01:12:33,349
- Hey, you win by losing, right?

1571
01:12:34,872 --> 01:12:37,962
[light dramatic music]

1572
01:12:39,529 --> 01:12:41,531
- [Referee] Ladies,
move up to the line.

1573
01:12:41,705 --> 01:12:43,141
- Get after it Brittany,
you can get her.

1574
01:12:43,315 --> 01:12:44,751
- Good luck, Brittany.
[crowd applauding]

1575
01:12:44,925 --> 01:12:46,840
- Let's go, Brittany.
- Come on, Brittany.

1576
01:12:47,014 --> 01:12:48,538
- All right, Jasmin!

1577
01:12:50,844 --> 01:12:54,239
- Let's go, Brittany!
- Come on, Brittany.

1578
01:12:54,413 --> 01:12:55,240
- Come on, Keisha.
- Come on, Keisha.

1579
01:12:55,414 --> 01:12:56,502
- Come on, Kei!

1580
01:12:58,417 --> 01:13:01,159
- Runners set.
[gunshot banging]

1582

[crowd yelling over each other]

1585
01:13:50,251 --> 01:13:51,731
- Stay with her,
Brittany, stay with her.

1586
01:13:51,905 --> 01:13:54,168
You're right there,
keep it up, keep it up.

1587
01:13:54,342 --> 01:13:55,561
- Looking good,
Keisha, looking good.

1588
01:13:55,735 --> 01:13:57,084
- Good job, Keisha.

1589
01:13:57,258 --> 01:13:58,564
- Great job, Brittany,
stay with her.

1590
01:13:58,738 --> 01:13:59,957
- Way to go, Brittany.
- Good job!

1591
01:14:00,131 --> 01:14:02,089
- Go Brittany!
[crowd applauding]

1592
01:14:02,263 --> 01:14:05,441
[light dramatic music]

1593
01:14:11,534 --> 01:14:12,883
- Where did the girl
in blue come from?

1594
01:14:13,057 --> 01:14:15,451
- I was just thinking
the same thing.

1595
01:14:17,496 --> 01:14:20,543
[light dramatic music]

1596
01:14:29,987 --> 01:14:31,249
- What's wrong with her?

1597
01:14:31,423 --> 01:14:32,337
- What, what is she doing?

1598
01:14:32,511 --> 01:14:33,643
- Why is she slowing down?

1599
01:14:33,817 --> 01:14:36,776
Is she hurt?
[somber music]

1600
01:14:40,519 --> 01:14:42,565
- [Jess] Come on, Brittany!

1601
01:14:46,307 --> 01:14:51,008
[crowd cheering]
[crowd applauding]

1602
01:14:57,623 --> 01:14:58,798
- You gotta make
top four, Brittany.

1603
01:14:58,972 --> 01:15:00,539
- Come on.
- Come on, Brittany!

1604
01:15:00,713 --> 01:15:03,324
- [Coach Maxwell]
Almost through!

1605
01:15:09,983 --> 01:15:12,943
[light dramatic music]

1606
01:15:17,469 --> 01:15:20,907
- Coach Dunn, any idea why
that runner pulled off?

1607
01:15:21,081 --> 01:15:23,823
- Why are you afraid somebody
might beat your girl?

1608
01:15:23,997 --> 01:15:25,346
- No, I'm just wondering
why she slowed down.

1609
01:15:25,521 --> 01:15:27,044
I mean, she looked great
up till that point.

1610
01:15:27,218 --> 01:15:28,567
- I mean, you know
how these coaches are.

1611
01:15:28,741 --> 01:15:30,177
They tell their
runners to start out

1612
01:15:30,351 --> 01:15:31,701
with the leader and
try to stay with them.

1613
01:15:31,875 --> 01:15:34,268
Well, she did for
about 600 meters.

1614
01:15:34,442 --> 01:15:35,879
- Yeah, but Michaels
is his coach,

1615
01:15:36,053 --> 01:15:37,750
and I've never seen him
coach a runner like that.

1616
01:15:37,924 --> 01:15:39,709
- Nah, Michaels ain't coaching.

1617
01:15:39,883 --> 01:15:42,233
He had to time some time off,
having some heart trouble.

1618
01:15:42,407 --> 01:15:44,627
- Oh, wow, I'm
sorry to hear that.

1619
01:15:44,801 --> 01:15:46,019
So, who's coaching her?

1620
01:15:46,193 --> 01:15:47,891
- Some high school coach.

1621
01:15:48,065 --> 01:15:49,719
I can't remember her name,
but I've seen her at some

1622
01:15:49,893 --> 01:15:51,416
of the cross country meets
when I've been recruiting.

1623
01:15:51,590 --> 01:15:53,157
- Something didn't seem right.

1624
01:15:53,331 --> 01:15:54,724
- What do you mean?

1625
01:15:54,898 --> 01:15:56,900
- Well, I mean, she
deliberately slowed down.

1626
01:15:57,074 --> 01:15:59,816
- Well, if you're worried
and you shouldn't be,

1627
01:15:59,990 --> 01:16:01,818
in two weeks when
you run the national,

1628
01:16:01,992 --> 01:16:05,430
just tell Keisha not to go out
so fast and to stay with her,

1629
01:16:05,604 --> 01:16:06,953
and then in the last 100 meters,

1630
01:16:07,127 --> 01:16:09,390
Keisha kicks it in
and blows her away.

1631
01:16:09,565 --> 01:16:11,349
You got nothing to worry about.

1632
01:16:11,523 --> 01:16:13,046
- Like we talked about.
- Brittany,

1633
01:16:13,220 --> 01:16:14,657
why did you slow down?

1634
01:16:14,831 --> 01:16:16,093
- Coach told me to.

1635
01:16:16,267 --> 01:16:17,268
- Why did you have
her slow down?

1636
01:16:17,442 --> 01:16:18,008
She was right with her.

1637
01:16:18,182 --> 01:16:19,749
- Dad.

1638
01:16:19,923 --> 01:16:21,272
- The goal wasn't to
try and beat her today.

1639
01:16:21,446 --> 01:16:22,578
- But that's the way
she needs to run.

1640
01:16:22,752 --> 01:16:24,101
Just go out and stay with her,

1641
01:16:24,275 --> 01:16:25,755
see if you can beat
her in the end.

1642
01:16:25,929 --> 01:16:27,234
- Brittany can't win
if she runs that way.

1643
01:16:27,408 --> 01:16:29,410
- But she was right
with her for 600 meters.

1644
01:16:29,585 --> 01:16:31,804
If she gets a little
more training in she
might be able to.

1645
01:16:31,978 --> 01:16:32,979
- I'm sorry, sir.

1646
01:16:33,153 --> 01:16:34,590
It doesn't quite work that way.

1647
01:16:34,764 --> 01:16:37,288
- Okay, coach, if
and this is a big if,

1648
01:16:37,462 --> 01:16:39,116
Brittany can run a 2:06,

1649
01:16:39,290 --> 01:16:41,945
how does Keisha
Thompson run a 2:06?

1650
01:16:42,119 --> 01:16:43,729
- If Keisha goes out slower
than she normally does

1651
01:16:43,903 --> 01:16:45,383
than Brittany has a chance.

1652
01:16:45,557 --> 01:16:48,038
- Wait, I don't
understand, please explain.

1653
01:16:48,212 --> 01:16:50,301
- Keisha usually goes
out in 60 seconds,

1654
01:16:50,475 --> 01:16:52,390
finishes the second lap in 65.

1655
01:16:52,564 --> 01:16:54,131
So, if she goes out
slower than she's used to,

1656
01:16:54,305 --> 01:16:55,306
then Brittany has a chance.

1657
01:16:55,480 --> 01:16:56,960
- How do you figure?

1658
01:16:57,134 --> 01:16:58,918
- Because Keisha's body
is used to going out fast

1659
01:16:59,092 --> 01:17:01,138
and then slowing down and if
she goes out at a slower pace,

1660
01:17:01,312 --> 01:17:02,574
it's gonna do the same thing.

1661
01:17:02,748 --> 01:17:04,315
- What?
- If Keisha goes out slower

1662
01:17:04,489 --> 01:17:06,404
it's gonna be easy for
her to maintain that pace.

1663
01:17:06,578 --> 01:17:07,971
- Yeah, and then she'll
just turn on the jets

1664
01:17:08,145 --> 01:17:09,755
and blow Brittany
away down the stretch.

1665
01:17:09,929 --> 01:17:11,757
- I'm sorry, I mean no
disrespect to you guys.

1666
01:17:11,931 --> 01:17:15,369
I really don't, but I
think that you're mistaken.

1667
01:17:15,543 --> 01:17:16,762
Keisha's body
isn't used to that.

1668
01:17:16,936 --> 01:17:18,372
She hasn't trained that way.

1669
01:17:18,546 --> 01:17:20,070
She's gonna go out, she's
gonna slow down like

1670
01:17:20,244 --> 01:17:22,550
she always does and
she's not gonna be able

1671
01:17:22,725 --> 01:17:24,552
to turn on the jets
like you guys think.

1672
01:17:24,727 --> 01:17:27,077
- Coach Donnelly, I appreciate
all you've done for Brittany,

1673
01:17:27,251 --> 01:17:29,906
I really do, but I have to
agree with the coaches here.

1674
01:17:30,080 --> 01:17:32,169
Brittany needs to do
what she just did,

1675
01:17:32,343 --> 01:17:34,693
go out hard after Keisha
and try to hang on,

1676
01:17:34,867 --> 01:17:36,564
and see if she can
beat her in the end.

1677
01:17:36,739 --> 01:17:38,001
- And what makes
you think her coach

1678
01:17:38,175 --> 01:17:39,480
is stupid enough
to slow her down?

1679
01:17:39,655 --> 01:17:41,178
- Yeah, why would
he ever do that?

1680
01:17:41,352 --> 01:17:43,093
- Brittany can't win by
running Keisha's race.

1681
01:17:43,267 --> 01:17:45,748
She needs to run the way
that we've been training.

1682
01:17:45,922 --> 01:17:48,141
You did a great job
today, Brittany, okay?

1683
01:17:48,315 --> 01:17:50,143
See you Tuesday.

1684
01:17:50,317 --> 01:17:51,667
Excuse me.

1685
01:17:51,841 --> 01:17:55,148
[muffled talking]

1686
01:17:55,322 --> 01:17:57,368
- Brittany what did
she tell you to do?

1687
01:17:57,542 --> 01:17:58,804
- Stay with Keisha
for 600 meters

1688
01:17:58,978 --> 01:18:00,676
then finish in the top four.

1689
01:18:00,850 --> 01:18:02,199
- Why'd she slow you down?

1690
01:18:02,373 --> 01:18:03,766
- I don't know.

1691
01:18:03,940 --> 01:18:07,421
She didn't say.
[light dramatic music]

1692
01:18:07,595 --> 01:18:09,162
- It doesn't make any sense.

1693
01:18:09,336 --> 01:18:11,382
- Wait till Michaels
hears about this.

1694
01:18:11,556 --> 01:18:14,864
[light dramatic music]

1695
01:18:31,010 --> 01:18:33,578
[card rustling]

1696
01:18:36,189 --> 01:18:38,844
[paper rustling]

1697
01:18:44,545 --> 01:18:46,286
[mouse clicking]

1698
01:18:46,460 --> 01:18:47,853
- Hey, Jess.
- Hey, coach.

1699
01:18:48,027 --> 01:18:49,681
The lineup for the
heats came in today.

1700
01:18:49,855 --> 01:18:52,075
Keisha's in heat one,
Brittany heat two.

1701
01:18:52,249 --> 01:18:55,818
- Okay, what are the top
qualifying times in Brit's race?

1702
01:18:55,992 --> 01:18:57,907
- One of the girls
has run a 2:11.8,

1703
01:18:58,081 --> 01:19:00,823
two are over 2:12 and the
others 2:13 and above.

1704
01:19:00,997 --> 01:19:01,954
- Okay, thanks.

1705
01:19:03,173 --> 01:19:04,870
[muffled talking]

1706
01:19:05,044 --> 01:19:06,872
- So, what time's
your race Saturday?

1707
01:19:07,046 --> 01:19:10,702
- 2:30, but I run a qualifying
heat before it on Wednesday.

1708
01:19:10,876 --> 01:19:12,312
- I thought you
already qualified?

1709
01:19:12,486 --> 01:19:14,532
- That was the regional
to get into the national.

1710
01:19:14,706 --> 01:19:17,535
So, there are 24 runners that
made it to the national meet.

1711
01:19:17,709 --> 01:19:19,406
So, on Wednesday
there are three heats.

1712
01:19:19,580 --> 01:19:22,061
The top two from each heat
plus the next two best times

1713
01:19:22,235 --> 01:19:24,063
make it to the final,
which is on Saturday.

1714
01:19:24,237 --> 01:19:26,109
- So, eight runners
total in the final?

1715
01:19:26,283 --> 01:19:28,328
- Right.
- I see.

1716
01:19:28,502 --> 01:19:29,808
But we're all
planning to be there.

1717
01:19:29,982 --> 01:19:31,331
- Thanks.

1718
01:19:31,505 --> 01:19:32,332
- Are you nervous?

1719
01:19:32,506 --> 01:19:33,159
- Nope.
- No?

1720
01:19:34,291 --> 01:19:35,596
- No.
- You are to!

1721
01:19:35,771 --> 01:19:37,033
- [Keisha] I am not.

1722
01:19:37,207 --> 01:19:38,469
- Don't get overconfident now.

1723
01:19:38,643 --> 01:19:39,339
- I'm not doing that.

1724
01:19:39,513 --> 01:19:41,167
I never do that.

1725
01:19:41,341 --> 01:19:43,300
I have respect for my opponents,
they just can't beat me.

1726
01:19:43,474 --> 01:19:45,128
[friends laughing]

1727
01:19:45,302 --> 01:19:46,825
- What about the
girl from Bethany?

1728
01:19:46,999 --> 01:19:47,870
- What about her?

1729
01:19:48,044 --> 01:19:49,219
- Is she in your heat?

1730
01:19:49,393 --> 01:19:50,873
- No, but it doesn't matter.

1731
01:19:51,047 --> 01:19:52,657
Look, see this side of me?

1732
01:19:52,831 --> 01:19:54,137
- Yeah.

1733
01:19:54,311 --> 01:19:55,747
- That's the only
side any runner

1734
01:19:55,921 --> 01:19:56,661
is gonna see of me
at the end of a race.

1735
01:19:56,835 --> 01:19:58,141
[friends laughing]

1736
01:19:58,315 --> 01:20:00,143
- Okay, so you won
your heat today,

1737
01:20:00,317 --> 01:20:02,710
but you can't run a 2:10 and
expect to win in the final.

1738
01:20:02,885 --> 01:20:04,277
- I know, but I
didn't run my hardest.

1739
01:20:04,451 --> 01:20:05,844
I told you that.

1740
01:20:06,018 --> 01:20:07,019
- But I haven't
seen you run hard

1741
01:20:07,193 --> 01:20:08,673
since Coach Donnelly took over.

1742
01:20:08,847 --> 01:20:10,631
I mean, you ran a faster
time with Coach Michaels.

1743
01:20:10,806 --> 01:20:12,459
- Well, Coach Donnelly has a
race strategy and there's been

1744
01:20:12,633 --> 01:20:15,245
no reason to use it yet,
but we will on Saturday.

1745
01:20:15,419 --> 01:20:16,637
- That doesn't,

1746
01:20:19,162 --> 01:20:21,468
I was gonna say something
negative and I caught myself.

1747
01:20:21,642 --> 01:20:22,818
I'm becoming a new man.

1748
01:20:22,992 --> 01:20:24,645
[light music]

1749
01:20:24,820 --> 01:20:27,953
Race strategy, Coach
Donnelly on Saturday, got it.

1750
01:20:30,216 --> 01:20:31,827
Hey, Brittany.
- Yeah?

1751
01:20:35,308 --> 01:20:36,657
- I hope it works.

1752
01:20:38,137 --> 01:20:38,877
- Thanks.

1753
01:20:42,185 --> 01:20:44,709
- Brittany ran a 2:09.8
earlier in the season

1754
01:20:44,883 --> 01:20:47,059
and then two weeks
later a 2:08.5.

1755
01:20:47,233 --> 01:20:49,322
Since then nothing faster.

1756
01:20:49,496 --> 01:20:52,021
- And Keisha ran a
2:04.9 at regional,

1757
01:20:52,195 --> 01:20:54,153
just 3/10 of a second
off her record.

1758
01:20:54,327 --> 01:20:55,938
- It's not even close.

1759
01:20:56,112 --> 01:20:57,504
[Coach Rogers groaning]

1760
01:20:57,678 --> 01:20:58,592
- That girl looked
good for 600 meters,

1761
01:20:58,766 --> 01:20:59,985
I mean she was right there.

1762
01:21:00,159 --> 01:21:02,074
- It's a 800 meter
race, not 600.

1763
01:21:03,336 --> 01:21:04,337
- Are you worried about her?

1764
01:21:04,511 --> 01:21:05,556
- No, sir.

1765
01:21:05,730 --> 01:21:07,210
Even if she stayed with me

1766
01:21:07,384 --> 01:21:09,212
she wasn't gonna beat
me down the stretch.

1767
01:21:09,386 --> 01:21:11,301
- Look, coach, we've
got two options here.

1768
01:21:11,475 --> 01:21:13,346
Either Keisha runs
like Keisha runs

1769
01:21:13,520 --> 01:21:15,000
or we let Brittany take the lead

1770
01:21:15,174 --> 01:21:17,655
and Keisha gets her in the end.

1771
01:21:23,966 --> 01:21:25,097
- [Brittany] Hey,
coach, I saw your car.

1772
01:21:25,271 --> 01:21:27,099
- Hey.

1773
01:21:27,273 --> 01:21:28,579
- You didn't have to come in
today, all I did was run easy.

1774
01:21:28,753 --> 01:21:29,797
- I know, I wanted to.

1775
01:21:29,972 --> 01:21:31,669
I felt like it was important.

1776
01:21:31,843 --> 01:21:33,932
- The other coaches said
they're coming to watch my race.

1777
01:21:34,106 --> 01:21:35,891
- [Courtney] That's great.

1778
01:21:36,065 --> 01:21:37,980
- Not sure what they're
expecting to see.

1779
01:21:38,154 --> 01:21:40,591
- Keisha is gonna
make history, right?

1780
01:21:40,765 --> 01:21:43,376
Only four time
winner in any event.

1781
01:21:43,550 --> 01:21:45,422
That's what everyone's
expecting to see.

1782
01:21:45,596 --> 01:21:49,252
Except me and that's
why I'm here today.

1783
01:21:49,426 --> 01:21:51,819
I know it would really help
if you felt the same way.

1784
01:21:51,994 --> 01:21:53,821
[Brittany sighs]

1785
01:21:53,996 --> 01:21:57,042
- Coach, I run a 2:08,
she's run a 2:04.

1786
01:22:00,132 --> 01:22:02,047
I'm not even close.

1787
01:22:02,221 --> 01:22:04,223
- Brittany, running
isn't just physical,

1788
01:22:04,397 --> 01:22:06,182
it's also mental.

1789
01:22:06,356 --> 01:22:09,054
You have to believe
you can do this.

1790
01:22:10,403 --> 01:22:12,492
- It's easy to say.

1791
01:22:12,666 --> 01:22:14,712
- Do you remember the
story in the Bible

1792
01:22:14,886 --> 01:22:17,019
about the blind man Bartimaeus?

1793
01:22:17,193 --> 01:22:18,455
He was begging on
the side of the road

1794
01:22:18,629 --> 01:22:20,370
when he heard Jesus was coming.

1795
01:22:20,544 --> 01:22:24,069
He said, Jesus son of
David, have mercy on me.

1796
01:22:24,243 --> 01:22:26,028
And Jesus called for him

1797
01:22:26,202 --> 01:22:29,161
and Bartimaeus cast
aside his garment

1798
01:22:29,335 --> 01:22:31,642
and Jesus asked
him what he wanted.

1799
01:22:31,816 --> 01:22:34,123
He said that he wanted to see.

1800
01:22:35,602 --> 01:22:37,909
Jesus said your faith
has made you whole

1801
01:22:38,083 --> 01:22:41,652
and he immediately
received his sight.

1802
01:22:41,826 --> 01:22:43,480
Jesus said that his
faith made him whole,

1803
01:22:43,654 --> 01:22:47,092
but what faith was
he talking about?

1804
01:22:47,266 --> 01:22:49,312
A lot of people don't
know that in those days,

1805
01:22:49,486 --> 01:22:51,183
blind people wore
a special garment

1806
01:22:51,357 --> 01:22:53,664
so that other people would
know that they were blind.

1807
01:22:53,838 --> 01:22:56,275
So, when Bartimaeus cast it
aside it was his way of saying,

1808
01:22:56,449 --> 01:22:59,104
I'm not even gonna
need this anymore.

1809
01:22:59,278 --> 01:23:01,063
That's the faith.

1810
01:23:01,237 --> 01:23:02,847
He believes that Jesus
was gonna heal him

1811
01:23:03,021 --> 01:23:05,197
before he was even healed.

1812
01:23:07,460 --> 01:23:10,159
And I believe you
can beat Keisha.

1813
01:23:10,333 --> 01:23:13,379
I really do, but you
gotta believe it too.

1814
01:23:16,513 --> 01:23:18,341
- Brittany was right with
Keisha for 600 meters in

1815
01:23:18,515 --> 01:23:21,692
the regional and Coach
Donnelly told her to pull back.

1816
01:23:21,866 --> 01:23:22,998
- Why'd she do that?

1817
01:23:23,172 --> 01:23:24,651
- [Coach Maxwell] We don't know.

1818
01:23:24,825 --> 01:23:26,392
- Brittany?

1819
01:23:26,566 --> 01:23:30,309
- I don't know, I just
did what she told me.

1820
01:23:30,483 --> 01:23:33,704
- And then yesterday in our
heat at the national qualifier,

1821
01:23:33,878 --> 01:23:36,881
Coach Donnelly told Brittany
to stay with the leaders

1822
01:23:37,055 --> 01:23:40,580
and then win it at the
end, which she did.

1823
01:23:40,754 --> 01:23:42,234
- I ran a 2:10.3.

1824
01:23:45,194 --> 01:23:47,631
- You run faster than that.

1825
01:23:47,805 --> 01:23:49,328
- Yeah.

1826
01:23:49,502 --> 01:23:51,417
- Coach Michaels, we're
not here to complain

1827
01:23:51,591 --> 01:23:54,116
about Coach Donnelly, but
perhaps you can give us

1828
01:23:54,290 --> 01:23:55,900
some clear direction.

1829
01:23:57,380 --> 01:23:59,773
I saw the regional
race and for 600 meters

1830
01:23:59,947 --> 01:24:01,645
Brittany was right with Keisha.

1831
01:24:01,819 --> 01:24:03,168
She looked great.

1832
01:24:03,342 --> 01:24:05,040
- Yeah, she did.

1833
01:24:05,214 --> 01:24:06,171
And I think it's
the only way to run

1834
01:24:06,345 --> 01:24:08,130
the final and have a chance.

1835
01:24:08,304 --> 01:24:10,610
It certainly can't be what
Coach Donnelly is hoping for.

1836
01:24:10,784 --> 01:24:12,177
- Which is what?

1837
01:24:15,093 --> 01:24:18,270
- That Keisha will go
out slower in the final.

1838
01:24:18,444 --> 01:24:19,880
Now, think about that.

1839
01:24:20,055 --> 01:24:22,796
The 800 meter champion
for the past three years,

1840
01:24:22,970 --> 01:24:26,452
nobody even close to her,
and Coach Donnelly thinks

1841
01:24:26,626 --> 01:24:29,064
Keisha's coach is gonna
slow her down for the final.

1842
01:24:29,238 --> 01:24:30,674
- Why does she think that?

1843
01:24:30,848 --> 01:24:31,631
- No idea.

1844
01:24:32,850 --> 01:24:33,720
- Brittany?

1845
01:24:34,721 --> 01:24:36,245
- I don't know, sir.

1846
01:24:36,419 --> 01:24:39,074
- We came here
tonight to ask if you

1847
01:24:39,248 --> 01:24:42,207
could override Coach Donnelly
and make the decision

1848
01:24:42,381 --> 01:24:45,906
for how Brittany
should run her race.

1849
01:24:46,081 --> 01:24:46,864
- I see.

1850
01:24:48,518 --> 01:24:51,042
- Coach Michaels, if Coach
Donnelly had never come on

1851
01:24:51,216 --> 01:24:54,045
the scene, wouldn't you
advise Brittany to go out

1852
01:24:54,219 --> 01:24:57,092
with Keisha and try
and stay with her?

1853
01:24:58,571 --> 01:25:00,095
Coach, wouldn't you?

1854
01:25:02,358 --> 01:25:05,448
- As a former 800 meter
runner and a finalist

1855
01:25:05,622 --> 01:25:07,493
in the NCAA, yes, I would.

1856
01:25:10,366 --> 01:25:11,802
Would you gentleman
please excuse us.

1857
01:25:11,976 --> 01:25:14,326
I wanna talk to Brittany alone.

1858
01:25:17,112 --> 01:25:20,419
[light dramatic music]

1859
01:25:20,593 --> 01:25:24,641
- Told you we could get
him to make a change.

1860
01:25:24,815 --> 01:25:25,598
[bed creaking]

1861
01:25:25,772 --> 01:25:27,165
- Now, you listen.

1862
01:25:27,339 --> 01:25:29,254
I'm still the head
coach of this team,

1863
01:25:29,428 --> 01:25:32,083
coaching you distance runners.

1864
01:25:32,257 --> 01:25:35,086
We've been together
now three years.

1865
01:25:35,260 --> 01:25:38,263
You and I have
accomplished a lot.

1866
01:25:38,437 --> 01:25:39,438
So, I'm gonna tell
you how you're gonna

1867
01:25:39,612 --> 01:25:41,092
run your race at the national

1868
01:25:41,266 --> 01:25:44,008
and I want you to do it
exactly as I'm gonna say.

1869
01:25:44,182 --> 01:25:46,228
You understand, young lady?

1870
01:25:46,402 --> 01:25:47,881
- Yes, sir.

1871
01:25:48,055 --> 01:25:49,361
- Please, give me you
word as a Christian

1872
01:25:49,535 --> 01:25:52,321
that you'll do
exactly as I tell you.

1873
01:25:54,105 --> 01:25:54,888
- I will.

1874
01:25:57,021 --> 01:26:00,024
- I want you to run your race

1875
01:26:00,198 --> 01:26:02,679
exactly as Coach Donnelly says.

1876
01:26:02,853 --> 01:26:05,160
[light music]

1877
01:26:06,248 --> 01:26:07,162
- Yes, sir.

1878
01:26:09,990 --> 01:26:12,993
[light dramatic music]

1879
01:26:28,792 --> 01:26:31,098
- You warmed up?
- Yeah, I'm ready.

1880
01:26:31,273 --> 01:26:32,970
- Okay, good.

1881
01:26:33,144 --> 01:26:34,928
This is what we've
been working towards.

1882
01:26:35,102 --> 01:26:38,062
All the training, all the
effort, all the pacing.

1883
01:26:38,236 --> 01:26:39,019
- Yep.

1884
01:26:40,673 --> 01:26:42,414
- If this goes the way I
hope than you should be

1885
01:26:42,588 --> 01:26:46,505
in the lead at 100 meters
with Keisha right behind you.

1886
01:26:46,679 --> 01:26:48,681
Let's hope her
coach took the bait.

1887
01:26:48,855 --> 01:26:50,988
- What does that mean?

1888
01:26:51,162 --> 01:26:52,468
- Do you remember
the story I told you

1889
01:26:52,642 --> 01:26:54,296
from the golf match
from when I was like 13?

1890
01:26:54,470 --> 01:26:55,949
- [Brittany] Yeah.

1891
01:26:56,123 --> 01:26:57,951
- Do you remember what
I said I did wrong?

1892
01:26:58,125 --> 01:27:00,389
- Um, you were worried
about the other players.

1893
01:27:00,563 --> 01:27:05,002
- Right and that's exactly
what we tried to do to Keisha.

1894
01:27:05,176 --> 01:27:08,614
We want her to run our
race today instead of hers.

1895
01:27:08,788 --> 01:27:12,314
Having you run with her for
600 meters and slowing down,

1896
01:27:12,488 --> 01:27:15,317
that was get into her head.

1897
01:27:15,491 --> 01:27:17,797
Let's hope it worked.

1898
01:27:17,971 --> 01:27:20,060
- What if Keisha goes out
fast like she always does?

1899
01:27:20,235 --> 01:27:21,758
- It doesn't matter.

1900
01:27:21,932 --> 01:27:23,412
Run the race that way
you've been training,

1901
01:27:23,586 --> 01:27:26,589
but if she goes out with
you that's what we want.

1902
01:27:26,763 --> 01:27:30,419
Remember it's not always the
fastest runner that wins,

1903
01:27:30,593 --> 01:27:34,249
it's the one that crosses
the finish line first.

1904
01:27:36,468 --> 01:27:38,731
- I've never been so
nervous in my life.

1905
01:27:38,905 --> 01:27:42,779
- Hey, you've run this pace
for 600 meters in practice,

1906
01:27:42,953 --> 01:27:45,738
so you know you
can get that far.

1907
01:27:45,912 --> 01:27:50,569
The hill workouts that we've
been doing and Bartimaeus,

1908
01:27:52,049 --> 01:27:53,703
they'll get you the
rest of the way.

1909
01:27:53,877 --> 01:27:57,184
If I had to place a
bet on the race today,

1910
01:27:57,359 --> 01:27:59,970
I'd put my money on Secretariat.

1911
01:28:00,144 --> 01:28:03,408
[light dramatic music]

1912
01:28:05,018 --> 01:28:06,803
- Never been a four time
winner in any event.

1913
01:28:06,977 --> 01:28:08,761
I bet Keisha breaks her
record by at least a second.

1914
01:28:08,935 --> 01:28:09,762
- What's her record?

1915
01:28:09,936 --> 01:28:11,155
- 2:04.6.

1916
01:28:11,329 --> 01:28:12,374
- 2:04.6, okay.

1917
01:28:13,766 --> 01:28:15,812
- Maybe she's nervous.
- Yeah.

1918
01:28:15,986 --> 01:28:18,728
[muffled talking]

1919
01:28:21,774 --> 01:28:23,602
- I don't think our
high school coach

1920
01:28:23,776 --> 01:28:26,257
knows how good Keisha really is.

1921
01:28:26,431 --> 01:28:28,303
- No, she'll find
out in a few minutes.

1922
01:28:28,477 --> 01:28:30,217
800 is about to start.

1923
01:28:30,392 --> 01:28:35,092
[crowd applauding]
[crowd cheering]

1924
01:28:38,138 --> 01:28:40,880
[dramatic music]

1925
01:28:42,142 --> 01:28:43,535
- Ladies, take your lanes.

1926
01:28:43,709 --> 01:28:45,145
[crowd applauding]
[crowd cheering]

1927
01:28:45,320 --> 01:28:47,670
- Good luck, girls.
- All right, Amanda.

1928
01:28:49,236 --> 01:28:50,325
- Let's go, Keisha.
- Let's go, Keisha.

1929
01:28:50,499 --> 01:28:52,239
- Let's go Kei!
- Woo!

1930
01:28:52,414 --> 01:28:54,459
[crowd applauding]
[crowd cheering]

1931
01:28:54,633 --> 01:28:56,287
- [Woman] Yeah!

1932
01:28:56,461 --> 01:28:58,985
- Go, Brittany.
- Let's go, Brittany.

1933
01:28:59,159 --> 01:29:01,771
[dramatic music]

1934
01:29:05,818 --> 01:29:07,559
- Good luck, Brittany.

1935
01:29:10,257 --> 01:29:12,782
- [Referee] Runners set.

1936
01:29:12,956 --> 01:29:17,656
[gunshot banging]
[crowd cheering]

1937
01:29:18,440 --> 01:29:20,703
[dramatic music]

1938
01:29:45,249 --> 01:29:48,557
[light dramatic music]

1939
01:30:02,309 --> 01:30:03,223
[crowd applauding]
[crowd cheering]

1940
01:30:03,398 --> 01:30:05,443
- [Man] Come on, Brittany.

1941
01:30:13,364 --> 01:30:16,149
- [Man] Come on, let's go!

1942
01:30:16,323 --> 01:30:17,934
- You got this!
- Stay on it!

1943
01:30:18,108 --> 01:30:19,414
- You got this!
- Great job, Brittany!

1944
01:30:19,588 --> 01:30:20,937
- Let's go.
- Stay on it, Keisha.

1945
01:30:21,111 --> 01:30:24,897
- Let's go, Brittany.
[crowd cheering]

1946
01:30:25,071 --> 01:30:28,031
[light dramatic music]

1947
01:30:44,700 --> 01:30:47,572
[triumphant music]

1948
01:31:04,981 --> 01:31:06,722
- You gotta go now, Keisha!

1949
01:31:06,896 --> 01:31:08,811
Run now!
- Come on, Keisha!

1950
01:31:11,466 --> 01:31:14,294
[triumphant music]

1951
01:31:42,584 --> 01:31:44,934
[light music]

1952
01:31:52,202 --> 01:31:52,681
- Hi.
- Hi.

1953
01:31:54,160 --> 01:31:56,249
- How's Coach Michaels doing?

1954
01:31:56,423 --> 01:31:59,383
- He's doing fine, but he's
pretty heavily sedated,

1955
01:31:59,557 --> 01:32:01,994
so he won't be awake
for a few more hours.

1956
01:32:02,168 --> 01:32:03,213
- Can we see him?

1957
01:32:03,387 --> 01:32:05,520
- I'm sorry, but no visitors.

1958
01:32:09,219 --> 01:32:11,700
- You guys wait
here for a minute.

1959
01:32:16,487 --> 01:32:19,272
[muffled talking]

1960
01:32:24,016 --> 01:32:26,366
I think she's gonna do it too.

1961
01:32:27,933 --> 01:32:28,673
Thanks.

1962
01:32:31,981 --> 01:32:33,417
Hey.
- Hey.

1963
01:32:33,591 --> 01:32:34,418
- She said that you
could go back there

1964
01:32:34,592 --> 01:32:35,854
but just for a minute.

1965
01:32:36,028 --> 01:32:36,855
- Okay.
- All right.

1966
01:32:37,029 --> 01:32:37,769
- Thanks.

1967
01:32:42,469 --> 01:32:47,170
[door latch clicking]
[light dramatic music]

1968
01:32:51,217 --> 01:32:53,742
[door thudding]

1969
01:33:08,278 --> 01:33:11,194
[gold medal rattling]

1970
01:33:13,849 --> 01:33:15,807
- [Courtney] To be successful
as a runner it takes

1971
01:33:15,981 --> 01:33:18,680
hard work, discipline
and proper training.

1972
01:33:18,854 --> 01:33:20,420
And sometimes in order to win,

1973
01:33:20,595 --> 01:33:22,684
you have to be willing to lose.

1974
01:33:22,858 --> 01:33:24,816
The same is true in life.

1975
01:33:24,990 --> 01:33:28,167
Hard work, discipline and
proper training always pay off,

1976
01:33:28,341 --> 01:33:29,691
but the most important thing

1977
01:33:29,865 --> 01:33:32,302
in this life is to
be willing to lose.

1978
01:33:32,476 --> 01:33:35,305
Jesus said it best,
"Whoever will save his life

1979
01:33:35,479 --> 01:33:38,264
"shall lose it, but
whoever will lose his life

1980
01:33:38,438 --> 01:33:40,615
"for my sake, shall save it."

1981
01:33:43,400 --> 01:33:46,621
[light dramatic music]

1982
01:34:20,132 --> 01:34:22,482
[light music]

1983
01:35:39,603 --> 01:35:42,084
[upbeat music]

1984
01:35:51,049 --> 01:35:53,399
[light music]

1985
01:36:39,358 --> 01:36:42,013
[gentle music]
