About the film: Nineteen-year-old Zach Bates told his mother at high school graduation that he was going to run a 100-mile ultra marathon before his 20th birthday. Surprised, she reminded him that his longest cross-country race had been 5k. Undeterred, he continued to speak his mind and envision running this 100-mile race before he turned 20. Seeing her son’s determination and knowing his unique ability to deeply focus – due to autism – she chose to let him run. They started with a half marathon, then a full, then a 50-mile race… Follow the journey as Zach trains and prepares to run his first 100-mile ultra marathon to chase down his dream.
