You have to be big to play football. And Dave? He's little, but his dreams are BIG. He turns to running, because you don't have to be big to be a marathon runner! But you do need to train. And Dave doesn't do much training before he crosses his firststarting line of the Boston Marathon. Which is probably why he doesn't quite cross thefinish line on his first attempt at the famous race.
