Channel 4 are showing the programme 'Running to the Limits' again this Sunday morning at 07:45. It is an intersting watch -inspiration before you go out for your long Sunday run!
The documentary was made by a filmmaker -Alex Vero, who was 16 stone, overweight and a heavy drinker, before deciding to take up running, and attempting to see what it would take to become an international marathon runner. The documentary also spends some time with GB distance athlete Ben Moreau and Ethiopian Mengsitu Abebe, in what is an interesting look at distance running, and the marathon.

Fascinating programme. I thought he was mad to think he could make international standard in just 2 years ... and he was! But he was pretty good by the end of it. And some interesting stuff about elite running more generally.
