Our Favorite Track and Field Films
Summer’s a great time to curl up in front of the TV and watch one of our favorite track and field movies. If you can’t find some of these titles in your local video store get online with your www.satelliteinternetbroadband.com internet and order the DVD!
Chariots of Fire – The classic T&F movie was released in 1981 and it’s garnered legendary status over the years. There’s a dichotomy of religion and fame circulating through the movie and it’s a great family film, too.
Saint Ralph – Released in 2004, Saint Ralph shows how the spirit of a 14 year old boy can save both his mother and his high school. It’s as inspirational as it is moving – think of it as the Rudy of the Track and Field world.
Prefontaine – You didn’t think we’d forget this one, did you? He’s got the gift and the gold and his Olympic dreams play centerstage in this all too true account of one of the greatest runners of our generation. You’ll come away crying and chanting USA.
