Run.

Run.

Hold you here

inside my heart

In walls of steel and stone

I, and I alone must bear

the relics of your love

In the shadow of the mountain,

a lonely hero stands

Memories flood the land

Oi!

Gap-Tooth, Fatso,

knock it off!

I am falling,

I am overcome

I remember days of glory

Silver at your feet

The people lined the streets

to see your victory parade

In this age

of toil and reason

Hearts are crying out

Do you hear the sound

above the static in your head?

I am breathless

Hey!

Oi! Knock it off, you two.

Oh, my God! Oh, my God.

- You never answered.

- Ooh.

Boston. Yeah,

I like the Red Sox.

- You hate baseball.

- I love baseball.

- You should pick Montana.

- Montana?

Yeah, they got mountains there.

All right, I'll think about it.

So, Bledsoe is in the 800.

Let's have him.

- Yes, sir.

- Let me run it.

- And you are?

- Gap-Tooth, sir.

- And who am I?

- Coach Jared, sir.

- Huh.

- There they are.

- Hey, Mom. Hey, Dad.

- Hey, Dad.

Hey, Bobby.

You guys want some coffee?

No, no, Coach said chemicals

are no good for runners.

Oh, okay.

Pass it over.

It's the boys in blue.

You smoke that like a b*tch.

- You do, actually...

- Shut up, homo.

Exceptional vocabulary, Bledsoe.

I want this moron

to repeat what he just said.

- What did you say?

- Whoa, whoa, whoa, "Moron."

Let's everyone relax

with the language.

The correct term is homosexual.

Sickle is a homosexual.

Schuler is also a homosexual.

- And proud of it.

- Very proud.

Come on, babe.

Oi.

Coach.

You can forget about that, mister.

Come on. Come on,

let me run the 800.

Whoa. That's...

That's my race.

I'll sprint out and hold them.

Bledsoe won't know what hit him.

Bledsoe is a tool,

but you can't beat him.

He ran a 4:
10 mile

last year, man...

A half is too short for him.

Got it from the guy over there.

It's yours if you let me run.

- Take it, take it...

- Okay. Deal.

You may not want to be

waving a joint around, man.

Your spikes. Come on, switch out. Come

on, we're the same size. Come on.

Coach is going to be

pissed if you don't win.

Shut up!

I am going to win!

- Kevin, stop.

- I'll be watching you.

I hate Bledsoe. I'm gonna win. I am

going to kick his ass. I am going to.

All right.

Runners, take your mark.

Set.

Hit it!

- Go, Kevin!

- Come on, Kevin!

Who is the coach

of this team, damn it?

You are, sir.

Bobby's about

to take the lead, sir.

He can't run that fast.

Look at him go.

- Go, Kevin!

- Go, Kevin!

Come on, boy, run!

We have a new record.

Kevin Schuler, Cotton High.

- Ride with me.

- I promised my mom.

Come on, sweetheart,

let's get you home.

Hey, leave your phone on.

- Leave your phone on.

- Yes, ma'am.

Here's your hat. Bye.

Did you tell my daughter

you love her yet?

Hey!

Montana!

So, how do you guys feel about having

your son as a new record holder?

- Best run you've ever had.

- Thank you.

Bet you can't pass them

before the bridge.

All right.

- Uh-oh.

- It's supposed to hurt.

Come on. Come

on, let me run the 800.

Run.

Ride with me.

My daughter likes you.

What do you want with her?

Well, make a choice.

Hello. Bobby has

a message for you.

Aw! That's what

you're missing, you jerk!

I wish you were with me. I wish you

didn't drive with your parents.

Montana.

Mountains. I'll find

the perfect home for us.

You'll see.

There's no rest

For the wicked heart

When the wicked lie

Unfolds

And bitterness

of a lover's art

Turning silver lies

To gold

Let fall the rain,

let fall the rain down on you

Let fall the rain,

let fall the rain down on you

Oh, what a test

for the tender heart

In the many nights

Of love

Oh, what a mess

when it falls apart

Where another lie

Will grow

Let fall the rain,

let fall the rain down on you

Let fall the rain,

let fall the rain down on you

There are three students left from

your grade. They're closing Carton.

A number of schools have offered

to accept you as a transfer.

You think you ate enough

for breakfast today?

I'll make you something nice

when you get home.

That's fine, Mom.

I'll give you the full report.

Tight.

Kevin Schuler.

So, your transcript tells me

that you're real bright.

But let's face it.

Carton is better known for its

4-H program than for academics.

Well, we are very proud

of our sheep.

See, normally, I'd have to charge $2,000

for an out-of-district placement.

But don't worry, I have an idea.

Hey, send Coach K in.

Coach.

Thanks. Hydrate.

So, Coach K tells me

you're a runner.

Oh, yeah. Kevin holds the Carton

County record in the 800.

- I didn't set any records.

- Kevin.

We can find scholarship money

for a gifted athlete.

I didn't set any records.

And I'm too old.

Ah, you're eligible

until next summer.

Yeah, I just want my credits and

I want to graduate, that's it.

You're gonna love this program.

And you're gonna be so surprised

by the quality of our equipment.

And for right now, we're just

gonna forget about the tuition.

Welcome aboard, son.

Hey. You don't know

anything about me.

First practice

is Monday at 3:
00.

Yeah, my man.

- You run?

- That's their plan.

Distance runners are crazy.

- Senior?

- No, I'm 32.

Oh, so you flunk what?

14 years?

They won't flunk me

no matter how hard I try.

They wanna win on Friday.

Jol Brule.

I'm up.

Here we go.

Everybody, let me see it.

Let me see, let me see that frog.
