Ha... Did they catch the drama with all the people collapsing in what has been labelled one of the worst organized major marathons in the country?

Ya know, maybe, maybe not, but watching a movie about a bunch of very emmaciated looking people running for hours doesn't strike me as all that interesting, anymore than watching rednecks turn left for two hours.

I think they have footage of me trying not to pass out at mile 21. It was filmed during the 2005 Chicago Marathon, so no footage of the carnage. It's actually a really good flick, but it's making me mad that they are spamming the crap out of it right now, that's the second time this site has gotten one of these. A-holes.
