  1. Last night I caught the intro to a Nova program in which they ask, "Can a group of sedentary non-athletes be transformed in nine months into a team that can complete the Boston Marathon?"

    The entire program is available online at http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/marathon/program.html

    I didn't watch the whole thing, but it sure sounded interesting and educational!

  3. just got done watching it. Very interesting and kind of inspiring. Regular people actually doing it. There is also a lot of interesting science in it, of course... it's nova. Some very interesting info on how the body changes with exercise, how it uses food and energy.
