The Race: The Race

Five professional runners go to a beautiful high altitude village to train for an upcoming race. Circumstance pits the strong, local village runners of this utopian hideaway with the visitors. What starts as a friendly competition turns into race with complicated outcomes. Do they dishonor their hosts by racing to win? Or do they lose and disgrace themselves? This is a story of redemption, honor and four races, three in the physical world and one in the mind, where winning and losing collide to pose the question - when is winning a loss, and its obverse - when is losing a victory?
