Spirit of the Marathon

Last week, I was searching for a running related movie to watch.  I was on HULU and saw Spirit of the Marathon .  I saw this movie a few years ago and I watched it while running on the treadmill.  Since it was free, I had nothing to lose by watching it again.

This movie is about different runners getting ready for the Chicago Marathon.  They all are at different places in their running career.  You have runners trying to qualify for the Boston marathon.  Runners running their first marathon after setting a goal while trying to lose weight.  A runner who decided to take their running to the next level and a guy in his 60’s who has been running marathons for years!!!

At less than 2 hours it was very entertaining and you felt you could relate to each of the runners.  I especially related to the guy who got hurt and could not finish a half marathon during his training for the full marathon.

What running related movies do you recommend?
