DETERMINED to make it to the starting line, Stroud mostly walks and runs 2,000 miles across defacto segregated America. Through visions and memories he corresponds with his mystical Aunt Jennie, pragmatic sister, Effie, and competitive brother, Tandy. As he recounts his journey, their voices become his counterpoint and strength. Tragically, he arrives at the race on time but loses due to malnutrition and exhaustion.
