THE SCENE: The Bronx, 1970s
THE STORY: Two champion runners, one with the soul of a miler, the other with gold-medal Olympic marathon dreams. Ken Rolston and Ernie Rivas ran in the same circles but for many years their paths did not cross. Finally they met through a mutual friend who was also the captain of the Lehman College cross country team. Their mutual admiration and competitive natures ignited a friendly rivalry that pushed the other to greater achievements. This is the story of competitive racing during a bygone era. It is also the story of a lifelong friendship born from a mutual love of running and a drive to dream big!
Part II
This is a lovely, inspiring, entertaining, and incredibly funny recounting of Ken and Ernie both breaking 2:30 at the 1975 Boston Marathon… but not necessarily together!
