  • Summary

  • As the world watches, Joan enters the final stretch of LA streets - the LA Coliseum in the distance, filled to capacity. But the pack behind Joan has splintered and the chase is on. As in life, the twists in the marathon mean that victory is never sure. The journey is the real story, and for Joan, her Olympic competitors, and the pioneer women runners, it required grit, courage, and stamina to go the distance.
