The Runaways

Beschreibung
Coolangatta Bay and Ocean View are both picture-perfect, tranquil seaside suburbs south of Hobart, Tasmania. But the lives of six women who reside there are far from either.
Becky, Crystal, Erin, Margaux, Arabella and Sonia are all running from something. But paradoxically, running becomes something to hold on to - a precious release valve from their troubles and traumas.
After they all join the newly established Coolangatta Bay Run Club, they quickly find common ground - and friendship.
When a major new race appears on the local calendar, the running buddies decide to register and train for it together. The gruelling Sea to Summit Half-marathon could be just the escape they all need.
However, like the race itself, the women's struggles continue to be all uphill. And when they are pushed to the very brink, it soon becomes clear that while they can run, they can't always hide.
