He finds just the thing to pour his heart and soul into and prove to society that he is somebody. Dedicating every ounce of his being to marathon running, Charles finds himself in the middle of an intense training regimen when he meets Emily. Emily gives him the support and encouragement he needs, and the two become close. As their relationship turns romantic, they decide to embark on the journey together. But when setbacks creep in, an obsessed and angry side of Charles reveals itself leaving Emily to question everything about their relationship. As things spiral in a negative direction, Charles meets a strange bartender named Levi. From behind the counter, Levi offers up his own unique outlook on life and the world around him. He knows just what Charles needs to achieve his goals. Desperately seeking approval and understanding, Charles is willing to win at all costs, but a difficult truth awaits him.
