Released by Walt Disney in July 2004 in over 100 theaters, this documentary takes 84 minutes to outline 20 inspirational stories. An eight person film crew was led by director Louis Schwartzberg through 45 states as they captured the people and their stories. This collection of vignettes is rapidly paced with only three to four minutes dedicated to each with an occasional patriotic montage added. It is the story of Dick and Rick Hoyt that brings this film to these listings. Dick has pushed his son Rick, who has cerebral palsy, in 22 straight Boston Marathons (and over 900 events since 1979, including 185 triathlons and 62 marathons) and has a marathon best of 2:40:47. Visit Team Hoyt to read more about how they reach out to integrate the physically challenged into everyday life.
