Synopsis

The mantra of non-profit organization Students Run Oakland is "If you can finish a marathon you can do anything." To get to the finish line, SRO asks teens to dedicate themselves to four months of training. The nonprofit will then provide the techniques, equipment and travel expenses to complete the Los Angeles marathon. Here, we track the students' mental and physical transformations and illustrate how the marathon preparation is as equal a challenge for SRO's directors and coaches as it is for the runners themselves.
