Bob Cassidy
O fora da lei Butch Cassidy encontra o caubói Sundance durante os meses nevosos de inverno e o começo de uma bonita amizade logo vira bebedeira de bar com muitas damas enquanto os dois não conseguem ficar fora de perigo. Unindo-se a eles, temos os rivais LeFors, O.C. Hanks, um ladrão querendo vingança, um guarda de cassino caçando-os com seus parceiros, um açougueiro mesquinho e alguns foras da lei. Butch e Sundance devem encontrar uma maneira de ganhar uma fortuna sem serem pegos, e para eles, isso significa roubar trens.

John Baker emerges as a fine runner while in High School in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and then continues setting records at the University of New Mexico. His ability is world-class, and after receiving his university degree he accepts a position as a coach and physical education teacher at Aspen Elementary School while continuing to train (with the 1972 Olympics in sight). He becomes very popular with parents and students alike, for seeking ways to involve all his students, even those with an apparent lack of ability. Learning that he has terminal cancer he contemplates suicide, but instead chooses to dedicate himself even more to the kids, helping even the handicapped to participate, and co-founding and coaching the Duke City Dashers, an all-girl AAU track team. He hopes his "last race"...already beating the odds by a year, will not end before seeing this team win the national title.
