| | Customer Reviews: Moving on all Levels (06 January 2009)I just started running again after having had foot surgery. I was looking for something to motivate me and had heard about this video. After watching the struggles and triumps of the runners being showcased, I felt energized to continue with my running. The movie emphasizes that it's not about how fast you are. It's more about fulfilling personal goals. I highly endorse this move as a must have for all levels of runners. Spirit of the Marathon (29 December 2008)We showed this movie at a pre-marathon carb party we had and everybody enjoyed it. If you or somebody you know is planning on doing a marathon I'd recommend it. Non-runners probably won't care Greatest running documentary (18 December 2008)This movie provides a great description of what it is like to experience the achievement of training and completing a marathon. Not only does it show the experience from the professtional's perspective, but it delves into the trials of the novice as well. Moving! (12 December 2008)The movie was very emotional for me. I saw myself in one of the runners featured. If you are just starting or a seasoned runner, there is something in this movie for you. NOTE: The movie preview was a little mature for my children. You might need to fast forward. It has NOTHING to do with running! great flim even for those who aren't runners (01 December 2008)Although I'm a marathon runner and have run Chicago, this is a great film for anyone who wants an inspiring story about the strength of the human spirit. Each of the highlighted runners in this film uniquely shows how hard work, inner strength, and human support can make any dream possible. As a very unathletic chubby woman myself, training for and running the marathon has changed my life. It taught me things about myself and those I love that I never would have learned otherwise. And I never would have started and completed graduate school, changed jobs, or tried new things if I wouldn't have had the marathon experience. This film is for all those who dare to dream no matter what challenges they face in life. Be prepared to be inspired and be prepared to cheer. Finally a great film that shows how wonderful going for your dreams can be! NOT JUST FOR RUNNERS!!!!! |
