Just wondering if anyone has seen or will be seeing the "Spirit of the Marathon" movie. It looks pretty good. Probably a great source of motivation for the mid season training. Heres a link:

I saw the movie on the 24th. It is very good. Essentially shows what its like to be a marathon runner. It depicts the similarities between the elite and regular runners as well. It is a good motivator!

Yes I saw it - went with my running group. Was kind of funny -- in a way that only marathoners would think so....I enloyed it -- and it almost made me feel like running Chicago again..

Their registration just opened up on 2/1...wonder who it will go THIS year for them after LAST year?

Got to see it last week. Worth the $10. Wish it would have been longer. I would have liked to have seen more footage and stories of classic marathons. Hope it comes out on DVD.
