Listen "Rosie On the MTA"
Episode Synopsis
Rosie Ruiz ran the Boston Marathon in 1980. Not all of it, but really, the beginning and end are all that matter. Where'd she get the idea, and why did she think it'd work? And how'd it all fall apart? Intro music is from "Across the Line" by the Wellington Sea Shanty Society.
