- In her new documentary, Christine Yoo explores a chance for inmates in the beleaguered U.S. prison system to be defined by more than just their crimes. The film, "26.2 to Life," goes behind barbed wire to capture the running club of the infamous San Quentin Prison. Yoo joins the show alongside a member of the running club, Markelle Taylor.

Markelle is a really cool guy. I met him last year at my brothers house. He and his team are saving lives, literally. I am a retired police officer with a lot of time in the street. Most prisoners are returned to the community. Its really important to help prisoners with their reintroduction to community life. These kinds of programs are excellent for reducing recidivism and helping incarcerated people to develop personally.
Excellent discussion! Prison shouldn't just be punishment without rehabilitation.
This is just one program I have seen that can be extremely helpful for inmates. I have seen quite a few programs of prisoners who have become dog trainers inside prison for people who need service dogs.
Kudos to Christine Yoo and to the coach who started this running program too. And for Markelle I pray for a good life and a renewal of his spirit daily so that he heals and can continue to help others.
Awesome stuff, thank u🤝👏 I just hope showing the film in other prisons will inspire and bring a huge positive impact on those troubled souls in them🤞🤞🤞✌️
Excellent information. Can’t wait to see the documentary.
I love this!
Great job Christine Yoo! I just watched the film and thought it was great. So glad I was able to help kickstart the project, and, that it resulted in a great film and, and in success for you.
Amazing.
Congrats to Christine and Markelle. What a terrific film about life in prison and using running as a vehicle to help rehabilitate inmates in a very real and tangible way. Markelle, 2:52 at Boston is amazing for anyone!!!
Very inspiring
Markelle, I suffer. Thank you for carrying my burden as you run.
This is so cool🙏
This would be heartwarming if we were talking about anything other than the American prison system.
Give people a purpose they'll rise above. The majority of people in prison got there because their circumstances and lack of fair opportunity. Shelter animals have the same effect.
The title of this video would scan better with "You are not your worst crime"
Teaching prisoners to run.…
What could go wrong?
Give us one example. Facts.
