Miles from Home
Miles From Home is the incredible true-to-life story of Johnny Miles, a child coal miner who not only survived some of the worst privations and brutality in the history of Canadian industry, but survived and escaped to win the Boston Marathon in 1926 in World Record Time, beating the reigning Olympic Champion. All this without ever having even seen a marathon before. With his trademark humour and heart, Michael Melski’s Miles From Home tells an epic story on a small stage, about the power of determination, the endurance of family, and the miracle of human possibility in an inhuman time.
