I feel like this has gone unnoticed by many but it's a fantastic sports anime which could be compared to that of Haikyuu, although Haikyuu is still better imo.
Run with the Wind focuses on the lives and relationships of a few regular college students who are trying to start a running club. The premise is that a fourth year student, Haiji, essentially tricks a group of his peers to sign up for cheap housing in an old dorm, only to reveal that the dorm’s function is for housing a defunct running team. After recruiting a ringer in the form of ex-track star Kakeru, Haiji slowly resolves to win over each of the dorm’s inhabitants for the ultimate goal of participating in the Hakone Ekiden, a relay race that requires 5km of each member.
It's absolutely great and if you enjoy sports anime you'll love this and if you don't, you'll most likely still love this.
