'These guys have proven what can be achieved through self belief and hard work. Read their story and be inspired.' Linford Christie OBE

Have you ever been told you can’t do something? Did it stop you from trying?

Jason Gardener, Darren Campbell, Marlon Devonish and Mark Lewis-Francis were told no over and over again. Our Race is the story of how they came together to beat the vastly superior foe that was the USA Men's 4x100m Relay team at the 2004 Athens Olympic Games, in a sporting shock for the ages.

These four men battled adversity throughout their lives, told they were troublemakers, low achievers, that they wouldn't amount to much.

Then once they found a focus, a goal, a passion, they heard they weren't good enough, didn't have the head for it, weren't tough enough, were wasting their talent. In the cutthroat, solitary, alpha male world of sprinting Jason, Darren, Marlon and Mark had to put aside ego and bravado and find a way to connect with each other to achieve the impossible.

They had to fight to even make it to that track on that night where no one gave them a hope against some of the greatest sprinters of all time.

How did they do it? How did they find a way to win?

They've had to raise their game their entire lives.

This is the story of how they did it.
