Today I have the pleasure of speaking with the man behind the story of the 2015 Disney movie, McFarland, USA!
The movie depicts Kevin Costner as coach Jim White who takes a group of underserved and at-risk teenagers to a cross country state championship in 1987. Thomas was the #1 runner on the 1987 team and today he shares his triumphs, struggles, and joys of running.
