Can sedentary people be transformed into marathon runners?
That’s the question the USA public television show “Nova” set out to answer in a recently-aired documentary in which a group of sedentary non-athletes embarked on a nine-month training program for the Boston Marathon.

By all reports, the show is very inspiring. Watch it if you can.
