• Marathon movie returns

  Tonight is the ONE and ONLY night to see "Spirit of the Marathon" in theaters. In my opinion, this is the film they should be honoring at the Oscars this weekend. Along with Daniel Day-Lewis' mustache , of course. Check out Hillary's...

• Marathon Movie

  I cried at Spirit of the Marathon . Not just got choked up or welled up. Actual tears . First time I've ever cried at a movie. And that was just the first 10 minutes. I've never even cried after my own races, probably due to dehydration. Came... Posted Jan 25 2008, 09:35 AM by Tim Cigelske With | With 2 comment(s) Filed under: Running, Marathon, motivation

• "Spirit of the Marathon" RULES!!!!!!

  In a word, Spirit of the Marathon was AWESOME! It was a very, very well-produced movie. By the end, I was really rooting for everyone to accomplish their marathon goals (which varied from finishing to winning it all). Plus, the movie soundtrack was really...

• Marathon man

  I have my ticket in hand for Spirit of the Marathon . I wasn't taking any chances it sells out, because it's only showing at three local theaters and only TONIGHT.* The three of us will be there. I got a chance to talk with director Jon Dunham... Posted Jan 24 2008, 12:48 PM by Tim Cigelske With | With 2 comment(s) Filed under: Running, Marathon, motivation

• The Big Lessons

  My history teacher Mr. Kittel used to call them "broad significant themes." These are The BIG Lessons. They were way more important than just the date of this or the place of that. They were ideas monumental enough to change history. And, as... Posted Oct 17 2007, 01:10 PM by Tim Cigelske With | With no comments Filed under: Marathon, motivation

• A lesson learned the hard way

  I can't say we weren't warned. Two days after our 10-mile race and I was still majorly sore. I was not the only one. "I was hurting," Kelly wrote me in the aftermath of the race. "I spent some time on the couch." I usually... Posted Aug 10 2007, 11:26 AM by Tim Cigelske With | With no comments Filed under: Marathon

• Kelly's race report

  Here's Kelly's first-hand report on her inaugural race. I was filled with a variety of emotions those few days before the race. I was nervous, excited and scared, all rolled into a lump in the pit of my stomach. As for Tim's reference to repeatedly...

• Week 4: Walking Before We Can Run

  There's one thing runners all do. They run. There's one thing runners do not do while they're running. They don't walk. Or at least they don't count that as training. Walking during a run has a feeling of defeat, of failure. For me... Posted Jul 09 2007, 02:29 PM by Tim Cigelske With | With no comments Filed under: Marathon
