We ARE Distance Runners: Untold Stories of African American Athletes

We ARE Distance Runners: Untold Stories of African American Athletes [48] [49] is a 2024 feature-length documentary film directed and written by Anthony Renard Reed. It is about dispelling the myth that African Americans are sprinters and not distance runners by profiling seven African American distance runners, who were inducted into the National Black Distance Running Hall of Fame. [50]

The film features nationally ranked milers and two-milers Ronald and Richard “Dick” Gregory [51] from Saint Louis, MO. Richard Gregory ran 3,500 miles from Los Angeles to New York City.

The film also includes Saint Louisans, Shalisa “Lisa” Davis and Anthony Renard Reed. [54] They both completed the marathon hat trick, which consists of running at least one hundred marathons, a marathon in every US state, and a marathon on the seven continents. Anthony Renard Reed is the first Black in the world to run marathons on all seven continents in 2007. [55] [56] [57] Ten years later, Shalisa Davis set the world record for running marathons on all the continents in seven days, thirty minutes, twenty-seven seconds. [58] Finally, it includes, Oakland, CA runners, Lisa Felder [59] who completed over 345 marathons and over 110 ultramarathons, and Alphonzo Jackson, [60] who was ranked in the top three in world in his age group for the 5K and half marathon, have coached over 30,000 runners.

The videographers were Luis Escobar, Kayla Key, Anthony Renard Reed, and Brian Young. Nita Peters McKeethen was the voiceover for the film and trailer.

Documentary Sections

The documentary is divided into four major sections. The first section opens up showing collegiate 100-meter sprinters at the NCAA championship. It states the myth that African Americans are sprinters and not distance runners and disputes the myth by showing National Black Distance Running Hall of Fame inductee, Shawanna White, crossing the finish line at the Cincinnati Flying Pig race.

The second section consists of introducing each runner's accomplishments and individual interviews. It opens by introducing the first two Blacks, who competed in Olympic marathon, which was held in Saint Louis in 1904. [61] [62] Next, it highlights Sumner High School, which was the first high school built for African Americans west of the Mississippi.[ citation needed ]

The third section focuses on the collective challenges which the runners faced, such as setting records, making world history, being involved in the community, running on trails, playing mind games during races, and running memorable races.

The final segment opens with Anthony Renard Reed talking about the possible slavery origin of the myth that “African Americans are not distance runners” because if slaves were allowed to run long distances, they would have run to freedom. The final scene was recorded at the site of the Windsor Plantation, outside of Port Gibson, Mississippi, where his great-grandfather, Benjamin Coleman was a slave. The film closes with the voiceover repeating that individuals should not restrict themselves based on someone's opinion.[ citation needed ]
