Athletes spend more than 40 hours a week training to make the Olympic team. Most have to cover their own training costs, in addition to their basic needs like food and rent. This is the Director's Cut of a film funded by Dick's Sporting Goods and made in collaboration with Anomaly NY. Featuring Jon Jones (NCAA D1 National Champion - Shotput), Jessica Medina (US World Team and US Open Champion, Wrestling) Desiree Miller (Captain of Team USA Paralympic Basketball), Laura Ryan (2014 NCAA Diver of the Year, USA Diving), N'aithan Scott (5X All American Hurdles). The Dick's Sporting Goods Contenders program employs these athletes and hundreds more around the country, helping them achieve their Olympic dreams.
