There's a plethora of cycling movies . . . What about running movies? The only one I can think of is Chariots of Fire.

Does The Running Man count? Honorable mention for Forrest Gump?

Jokes aside, I remember a few others in the 80s, and a Jesse Owens movie called Race a few years back.

Edit: I looked up some more. Here's a good list for anyone curious.

One surprising thing on that list: A movie about my HS x-country team! Not my year but didn't know there was a movie about it at all.
