"A recurring motif in the blockbuster F1 is Sonny Hayes (played by Brad Pitt) leading his team on laps around the track. Not in a vehicle, but on foot. He runs, Rocky-style, to boost his endurance, build camaraderie and get a feel for each course. When his future in the sport is uncertain, the team even runs in his absence, determined to follow his example. As a runner, I was delighted to see that much running in what was probably last year's sexiest movie."
"The weekend will feature 5K and 10K races, but its premier distance is a 13.1-mile point-to-point from Maranello to Modena. Runners are granted access to iconic Ferrari grounds, even getting to run along the Fiorano Circuit, the private racetrack that openend in 1972, which Hagerty once described as "[a] figure-of-eight draped over the Emilia-Romagna flatlands like one long strand of spaghetti.""
