If you’re thinking about running a marathon or have signed up for your first one, I think you should watch this movie.
Spirit of the Marathon, the first movie, focused on the Chicago Marathon. They follow people training and ultimately running the race. The stories are so inspirational and helpful to get you out and get running!
I just finished watching Spirit of the Marathon II, which focuses on the Rome Marathon. There are so many different reasons why people run and this movie showcases just a few, but they are powerful stories.
I encourage, even if you’re not thinking of running a marathon, but just running in general, to watch both of these movies. The inspiration alone is amazing.
QOTD: Have you watched these movies? Do you have a go to inspirational movie when you need a little extra motivation?

I’ve watched spirit of marathon at least 20 times, it’s my favorite movie! I just ordered Spirit of the Marathon II and can’t wait for it to get here!
You will love it!
I’m getting ready to re-watch the first one for Chicago in the fall. I’m pretty excited and not going to lie after I saw it the first time I kept using my arms more when I run thought of it as “Deena Kastor-ing” it because I think she talked about that in the movie.
I need to re-watch the first one again!
