Hint: a genuine marathon movie: Run Grammie, RUN! The movie, which stars 86-years young New England running legend Louise Rossetti and premiers on July 29th in Wakefield Massachusetts.

Rossetti, one of New England’s most beloved runners, runs over 100 races a year and has won numerous age group awards.
