Spirit of the Marathon


Quote  |  Reply

Anyone watch "Spirit of the Marathon" I saw it on Hulu it was very inspiring. 
I think I may want to train again some day as I injured my knee a month or so before I ran the marathon I trained for. =/  Years ago.

Anyways it was a good watch,  I recommend it to all those who are training, have trained or run a marathon.  Any runner out there really.

Great video! Thanks for posting that.

I heard of this on the Runner's forum I frequent. I'll have to take the time to see it soon, while it's free on Hulu.

Yeah I saw it mentioned on RW thats what made me think of it, I watched it on Hulu about 2 weeks ago.  Hope you guys enjoy it!

Well thanks to your recommendation I did watch it last night.. and it was indeed very inspiring!!!

I'd been hearing about this and decided to watch it last night. Very cool and interesting to get the marathon from the perspectives of the different people, from the elites to us mere mortals.

When that guy demo'd on a treadmill the pace that the elites run at, ~5 minute mile, I was floored. I mean, I know they run that fast just from doing the math, but you don't get a sense of the speed just watching it on tv. But seeing it on the treadmill, holy cat, and they can sustain that for a little over 2 hours? I can't even sprint that fast for 30 seconds. lol
