I know, you’ve heard it all before, but Spirit of the Marathon, the first ever non-fiction feature film to capture the drama and essence of the famed 26.2 mile running event, is making another encore, this time in the guise of a 16 City Tour in select movie theaters for one night only! Looks like the movie will be screened between April and November in select cities to coincide with specific events. For example, the film will be shown in Virginia Beach (my home town) on August 28th – three days before the massively popular Rock ‘n’ Roll Half Marathon.
Tickets go on sale at Fathom Events today for seven of the cities, as can be seen below. There will be two screenings per city – one at 4:30pm with the other 3 hours later at 7:30pm.
