is the movie "Saint Ralph" based on the true story?

Sources suggest that the 2004 film Saint Ralph, is loosely based on the true story of the youngest boy ever to have run in the Boston Marathon.

As per Runnersgazette.com, St. Ralph captures the flavor of the time and the flavor of Catholic Schools of that era. And Michael McGowan captures so well the angst of adolescence, complete with a hilarious scene at a local pool. Ralph’s “situation” has given him a touch of notoriety he’d prefer not to have.
