McFarland, USA was released today. Here’s a great quote from one of the real team members:

“Winners can come from anywhere. Winning is intentional. It requires you to sacrifice, to do that hard work, whether it’s studying for the test or running early in the morning or after work, you have to purposely set your mind and your heart to accomplishing these goals. Even if you don’t win, just giving it your best effort, you’re going to win in life. It’s going to pay off for you.”
– Danny Diaz, a member of the 1987 McFarland HS cross-country team.

Here is the trailer from this movie. Even though it’s sure to have the Disney “sheen”, I’m still really up to see it!
