Following the guilty verdict of the Boston Marathon bomber, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, and with the two year anniversary of the tragedy on the 15th April, BBC World News will air the doco, Undaunted: Chasing History at the Boston Marathon.
At 2:49 p.m. on April 15, 2013, Juli Windsor was less than a mile away from completing a lifelong quest to become the first runner with dwarfism to finish the Boston Marathon. The bombings that day transformed her triumph into horror. Juli and thousands of runners were turned back before crossing the finish line. She vowed to run again the next year. It would be a chance at redemption as much as making history. “Undaunted: Chasing History at the Boston Marathon” is a film about the comeback of one unique runner as well as a city that came together to rally against terror.
12.10pm April 18th on BBC World News.
