Watch: NYC Marathon Documentary '26.2: Journey to the Finish Line'

"Savor every minute of this journey." Tribeca Films has just debuted a new documentary film titled 26.2, made by filmmaker Nicolas Heller – best known as the runner "New York Nico" on social media. The full title for it is Journey to the Finish Line of the NYC Marathon and the 34-minute short doc is out now to watch (view below). 26.2 follows four tenacious New Yorkers in the lead-up to the 2024 TCS New York City Marathon. A long time superfan of the race, Nicolas was inspired by individual stories & motivations of each runner (and walker) who chooses to participate in one of the world’s largest annual marathons. This is their honest story. "Between them, they've survived a stroke, cancer, a life-changing house fire, & finishing dead last in the 2023 race. They're not professional runners. They're people who've been knocked down and decided to keep moving. This isn't a story about running fast. It's a story about getting there at all." This reminds me of another doc called 26.2 to Life, about a marathon inside of a prison. And this year's other doc on running called Learning to Fly. 26.2 is another engaging & wholesome film that should inspire everyone. // Continue Reading ›
