Going the Distance (1979). A documentary about the XI Commonwealth Games, held in Canada in 1978.
This is a solid little documentary following a bunch of different athletes across a bunch of different sports as they prepare for the Commonwealth Games. It’s well-shot, and provides a fun insight into the preparation process and the endurance needed, but I do wish we got a bit more of a sense of who they were as people. 7/10.
