Synopsis

After tragically losing his wife to breast cancer and struggling to raise three young children on his own, real life super hero Terry Hitchcock at the age of 57 seized on an idea. He wanted to accomplish the impossible: run 75 consecutive marathons in 75 consecutive days to bring attention to the incredibly difficult lives of single-parent families. Narrated by Academy Award winner Billy Bob Thornton.

On March 31, 2011 "MY RUN screened in 535 movie theaters nationwide in a one night only Fathom Event in 140 top U.S. markets and received 200 million impressions.

In June, we secured a partnership with Virgil Films to be our North American distributor for “MY RUN”. Virgil Films distributed such acclaimed and successful films as “Super Size Me” and the Academy Award Nominated “Restrepo”.

"MY RUN” is now available on DVD at www.MYRUNMOVIE.com
