Run Forrest Run

The 1994 movie, Forrest Gump, was not a movie about running, but the movie has produced several enduring popular culture references about running.  


You wouldn't believe me if I told you, but I could run like the wind blows.  
From that day on, if I was going somewhere, I was running!  
--Forrest Gump


That day, for no particular reason, I decided to go for a little run. So I ran to the end of the road, and when I got there, I thought maybe I'd run to the end of town.
And when I got there, I thought maybe I'd just run across Greenbow County. Now, thinking since I'd run this far, maybe I'd just run across the great state of Alabama. 
--Forrest Gump

  1. Wade: It appears Forrest is overstriding and heel striking. You should work with him on form!
