Miscast Big Time

Not bad movie BUT a short chunky guy with legs that are foot and half long with a couple months of training DOES NOT run a under 4 mile. Just doesn't happen in the real world, not even close. Mathew Lawrence extremely miscast. Story not believable.

Not realisitic

While the theme of this movie is realistic and uplifting, the mile races are not. No one runs the mile with a goal of 4 minutes and runs most of the race in lane 2. Also, the other runners in the races are scattered all over the track as well. This is not the way a "mile run" would be contested in reality. Also most of the athletes do not even look like distant runners.

Trivia
At the end of the movie, the voice-over misquotes the proverb about the antelope and the lion. The speaker substitutes the word "fastest" for "slowest" in the line, "Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the slowest antelope, or it will starve." The full proverb (wording may vary slightly, according to who's telling it) is: "Every morning in Africa, an antelope wakes up. It knows it must outrun the fastest lion, or it will be killed. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the slowest antelope, or it will starve. It doesn't matter if you're the lion or the antelope, when the sun comes up you'd better be running."
