Runners High
See a preview of this Truly CA episode.
When teenagers from one of the toughest neighborhoods in the country -- Oakland, California -- sign up to train for a marathon, they begin the journey of a lifetime. Runners High is an intimate, character driven documentary of struggle, courage, and hope.
During a season filled with conflict and possibility, these teens bare their dreams, joys, tears, and fears. As several stumble under pressure in emotionally charged moments, others realize the journey begins with the power and commitment to accept responsibility for their own futures. Runners High shows that no matter what happens next, one season of training to run 26.2 miles can change your life forever.
