This film epitomizes the drive, determination, and spirit it takes to complete a marathon. Great cinematography and story variety as it shows the challenges and triumphs each runner experienced. As a marathon runner, I found this film truly inspiring! Definitely my favorite!

This is a film to show non runners when they ask "why do you get up at 5 AM to go run 20 miles?" or "what's special about the marathon?" Seeing the dedication of all the runners - not just those at the front of the pack - is inspiring. I watch this the night before I run any marathon.

If your an endurance runner this is a must watch and if you don't like to run but want to understand the obsession of a runner this is for you; It might even inspire you to run:)
