Age Group Winner
Directed by Lex Helgerson
In 1980 Jay Helgerson shocked the world by becoming the first person to run a marathon a week for a year, each race completed in under three hours. From 2015-2020, his daughter, filmmaker Lex Helgerson, follows him with a camera in order to attempt intimacy with the man who raised her. What she gets are his projected anxieties and his struggles with physical age and emotional distress, all while he trains for the Boston Marathon.
