We didn't tell the story of a cancer patient. This movie is about the run and the great thing that he did. It's a really personal story, too, just four main characters, Terry, his friend Doug Alward, his brother Darrell and a guy named Bill Vigars.

I think, ultimately, those little details come through, even if it's just in my head,

Thank goodness for me this technology exists, because it's the only way that his story would get told like this.

We were out in the country running for a lot of the shoot,

They had food fights all the time, they were three young guys in a van, for the first time.going across the country. They were excited more than anything, especially in the beginning. As much as it was serious and hard work and all that, there's no way they could have done what they did without having fun.

I didn't discover Terry until I was 10 years old, he was a legend by that time,
