The Front Runner is a love story about Billy Sive, a brilliant young runner, and Harlan Brown, Billy's tough, conservative track coach. When closeted Coach Brown finds himself falling for openly gay Billy, the coach must decide whether to combat his true feelings or risk the outrage of the entire sports world. He must also consider how public news of their affair would ruin Billy's chances of Olympic gold at the 1976 Olympics in Montreal.
