    "Chariots of Fire." "Prefontaine" was good, but not in the same league.

    Ya know I don't think I ever saw that entire movie. I was a little kid and remember watching parts of it. I might have to check that out.

    "Run Fatboy Run" is not a bad movie, although it got mediocre reviews. I thought is was cute :tongue:

    I enjoyed that film too. Completely off topic but I love your maths/ Pi ticker. Am going to steal it for my FB page :)
    In for that math ticker. Love it.
    Running Man...is my vote.

    There were two I distinctly remember.

    RUNNING - Michael Douglas movie about doing a marathon. Picked it up again and enjoyed it the second time too.

    The Loneliest Runner - Michael Landon and Lance Kerwin (yes I'm showing my age). TV movie from 76 that's on youtube now.

    Into The Wind (The Terry Fox story) , it's a documentary on ESPN's 30 for 30 series. I'm not a runner but felt inspired after watching it!
  • Run Lola Run. That girl was IN SHAPE!!!!!!!
  • The first movie that came to my mind was Zombieland....

    Since all the good movies have been stated already, This brought back memories of watching the music video to Garth Brooks "Standing Outside the Fire" - Cried like a little baby I did!
