42 | More Than a Number | Tamarack Ottawa Marathon 2026 Documentary

A few weeks before race day, doctors were studying my heart. Looking for answers. Looking for limits. What they found wasn't weakness. It was an athlete's heart — shaped by years of movement, challenges, and countless kilometers. This film is not just about running 42.2 kilometers through the streets of Ottawa. It's about gratitude. For every early morning. Every setback. Every friend who showed up when I needed a boost. Every Wednesday run. Every lesson learned along the way. While some runners chase podiums, records, or qualification standards, this race reminded me that we are all chasing something different. For me, this marathon was about celebrating life, health, community, and the privilege of moving forward one step at a time. Marathon #10. Birthday Edition. 42 reasons to be grateful for.
