The Old Man and the Marathon
あらすじ・解説
The Old Man and the Marathon is a story about taking on a challenge despite the odds. Sixty-four-year-old Angelo Santiago has been a distance runner most of his life. However, he has never run a marathon because of a history of sciatica problems. This missing piece in his competitive career has always gnawed at him, reminding him of his inferiority among his running peers.
After three months of pain-free running, he decides to train for his first marathon. With encouragement from his young friend Emmanuel, he begins the arduous workouts that will prepare him for one of the most difficult ordeals of his life. Along the way he meets Rita Marling, a beautiful woman who stirs romantic embers dormant since the death of his wife, 10 years ago. He also encounters Jack Silvers, a local high school coach and marathoner who becomes his rival in racing and romance.
On the day of the race, like everyone who takes on the challenge of a marathon, Angelo must reach deep inside to find the strength and courage to finish the race.
