About this listen

Arriving on the Isle of Harris with swash and bluster, three young American students are set to run a marathon the islanders know nothing about.

At first, it seems the lads are more interested in partying and larking. Gradually, however, their reasons for making this journey, for running this race, come to the fore. JB has an overbearing father to appease. Drew needs to find his feet in more ways than one. And Taylor has history here; his mother was born in Harris but left when she was a teenager, never to return. Hidden in his backpack are four old pieces of tweed with family secrets tightly woven through the iconic cloth.

It's Spring on the island; a time of sunshine and snow, of renewal and growth, of putting distance between the dark days of winter and the promise of summer yet to come. In the tiny white holiday cottage on the windswept dunes of Luskentyre, friendship, ambition and identity are put to the test. Is the race all about the finish line? What is it that these three are running from – and towards?
