Best Running Movie of All Time???

With Oscar season upon us, we decided it was time to settle the eternal debate as to what is the best running movie of all-time.  While the general public definitely seems to associate running with Forrest Gump, we know that there are many better alternatives out there. (We feel we've got the top candidates covered, but if you feel we've missed one, email us).

The process is fairly straightforward, but involves several rounds.  On the next page, you will see a list of the candidates for the best running movie of all-time.  We haven't included every running movie ever made (which perhaps wouldn't be that difficult), but we've narrowed the list to the 21 leading candidates.  In the first round, you will select your 4 favorite movies of all time.

We will then tabulate everyone's vote, and then in round two pit the 8 remaining favorites against one another. You will narrow the field then to 4 movies in round 2, then 2 movies in round 3, and then finally in Round 4, you will select the winner.  This Survivor type elimination will ensure that the winning movie isn't some niche film that a minority of runners really like, but everyone else hates.

So click here to get started and view the movies.  You have through Sunday night to pick your 4 favorite running movies of all-time.  (If you haven't registered a username for LetsRun.com's contests you will be able to on the next page.  This prevents people from voting more than once).
