Résumé :
As captain of his school track and field team, Jonas runs only to win. His specialty is the 100m sprint, and when the team’s first track meet does not go as well as he hoped, Jonas turns his anger on his teammates. Jonas’s coach strips him of his captaincy and kicks him off the team until he changes his attitude. When he meets Darren, a vision- and mobility-impaired teen who wants to run a 5k race Jonas agrees to help Darren train. Through working with Darren, Jonas learns a new appreciation for his sport and what it really means to be a winner.
