Running On Empty Part II: Chariots of Dire

Part 2 of 3- Higher quality download of the full show: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=GCYGZKX6

A mid-twenties crisis leads to an attempt to run a half-marathon, not even a proper marathon. These videos chart the hopes, dreams and inevitable disappointments of that attempt; a 'plodumentary', if you will (har de har). An exploration of inadequacy, a study in mediocrity. Not even a proper marathon.

Part three will follow soon.
