This documentary, 26.2: Journey to the Finish Line of the TCS New York City Marathon, follows four New Yorkers as they train for the iconic race, each with a unique and inspiring story. The film highlights the journeys of a retired math teacher, an NYPD administrative aide, a public defender, and an elevator mechanic, who collectively have overcome a stroke, cancer, a devastating house fire, and even finishing last in a previous marathon. Produced with support from New York Road Runners, this film isn't just about athletic prowess, but about resilience, determination, and the profound personal reasons that drive participants to cross the finish line.
