Just. One. Mile. (Still)

Just. One. Mile No Virtual Option Available

Feature Documentary
Director: Duane Codrington
Country of Origin: United States

It’s just one mile. Anybody can run just one mile. That’s the rallying cry, shouted at competitors every twenty minutes, to line them up and do it again and again until only one is left. The Mid-State Mile follows a “last man standing” format, but it is different from other races. It tortures the sport’s elite with over 300 feet of elevation every mile. With no prize money awarded or trophies, bodies and minds are pushed to be the last man standing.
