City Slickers Can't Stay With Me: The Coach Bob Larsen Story
City Slickers Can't Stay With Me: The Coach Bob Larsen Story, or simply City Slickers Can't Stay With Me, is a 2015 documentary directed by Robert Lusitana that recounts the 50 + year career of USATF National Track and Field Hall of Fame Coach Bob Larsen from his beginnings as a high school coach through his years as UCLA Bruin Track and Field coach culminating with his work with Mammoth Track Club and Meb Keflezighi Plot The plot line of the film combines a chronological documentation of the 50+ year career of National Track and Field Hall of Fame Coach Bob Larsen with his current day work with long-time protégé, Meb Keflezighi. The narrative toggles between historical segments and glimpses into the training of an elite marathon champion. Along the way viewers learn about the success Larsen has had at all levels – high school, junior college, UCLA, the elite club level where he worked in tandem with Coach Joe Vigil to create Mammoth Track Club, and are introduced to Meb's story and learn about the commitment and dedication needed to achieve at world class levels. The film has some wonderful old photos and super 8 footage from the 70's
