During one of my recent sleepless nights, I turned on the TV and landed upon this show on PBS.....Nova - Marathon Challenge. Not that I'd ever really want to run a Marathon, but I thought this show was pretty interesting. They take beginner runners and train them to run the Boston Marathon. Most couldn't even run a mile when they started (sounds almost like me!).
Team Nova consists on runners with all sorts of problems. One runner has Type 1 Diabetes and wears an insulin pump. Another has HIV. Some of the runners just want to make a life change. Their stories are just amazing.
If you've got time, check it out!
