He got cold feet and ran for the hills and he's been going in circles ever since. When Dennis discovers Libby's hooked up with high-flying-go-getter Whit (Hank Azaria), he realizes it's now or never. He enters a marathon to show he's more than a quitter but then finds out just how much sweat, strain and tears it takes to run for 26 miles. Nobody gives him a chance but Dennis knows this is his only hope to more than a running joke.

Love Simon Pegg, but this just looks horrific.

Recently watched it. Not only was it not horrific, it was the best marathon movie of all-time!

Go in with low expectations and it should be enjoyable. Generally funny throughout and even though predictable, the story was somewhat heartwarming. The "hitting-the-wall" scene was probably the funniest scene of the movie.
