Directed by Charles-olivier Michaud.Kelly Blatz, Richard Jenkins, Kim Basinger, Cam Gigandet, Analeigh Tipton, Rhys Coiro.4 MINUTE MILE is the inspirational story of Drew (Kelly Blatz), a high school student struggling to overcome the inner-city surroundings that threaten to imprison him. After getting manipulated into running drug payments to a local dealer (Rhys Coiro), Drew has nowhere to turn in a family with a deadbeat older brother (Cam Gigandet) and an overwhelmed single mom (Oscar-winner Kim Basinger). His only outlet is track practice but that is taken from him as he continues down the path of his sibling; even the affections of a girl at school (Analeigh Tipton) can't set him straight. Just as it seems hopeless, an ex-track coach with his own demons (Oscar-nominee Richard Jenkins) witnesses Drew's speed and athleticism and decides to train him to reach for more than he ever imagined possible. Together they work towards finding solace in each other but Drew's resolve is threatened as tragedy strikes right before the biggest race of his life and forces him to confront everything that has been holding him back.Rated PG-13.

Iron and thunder : a true story of faith, purpose and timing / by Willyoung, Justin,author.; Harper, Ian,edt.; Paul, Chad,ctb.;
"In 2017 the Cherryville High School boys track team found themselves without a coach and without any real hope for the future. Yet, in just a few short seasons the program would find new life. After years of personal and scholastic setbacks the team would find themselves on the verge of achieving the impossible, a goal that seemed out of reach and riddled with obstacles. To most, their growth and success was proof that hard work and character can overcome adversity, while true, their coach also saw things from a different perspective. As he watched the team pursue an improbable goal, he was struck by the truly awesome force of destiny. With all due credit to the team's perseverance and spirit he couldn't help but see their progress as the reflection of a divine plan-a path set in motion long before he or any of them were even born." -- from Amazon.

Rock bottom girl / by Score, Lucy,author.(CARDINAL)623186;
"Downsized, broke, and dumped, 38-year-old Marley sneaks home to her childhood bedroom in the town she couldn't wait to escape twenty years ago. Not much has changed in Culpepper, PA. The cool kids are still cool. Now they just own car dealerships and live in McMansions next door. Oh, and the whole town is still talking about that Homecoming she ruined her senior year. Desperate for a new start, Marley accepts a temporary position as PE teacher and soccer coach. Can the girl banned from all future Culpepper High Homecomings keep the losing-est girls soccer team in school history from killing each other and prevent carpal tunnel syndrome in a bunch of phone-clutching gym class students? Maybe with the help of Jake Weston, high school bad boy turned sexy good guy. The tattooed track coach, dog dad, and teacher of the year becomes her new fake boyfriend and alibi-for a price. The Deal: He'll teach her how to coach if she teaches him how to be in a relationship. Who knew a fake boyfriend could deliver such real orgasms? But it's all temporary. The guy. The job. The team. There's too much history. Rock bottom can't turn into a foundation for happily ever after. Can it?"--
