I stumbled across this on Netflix recently.

Mind blowing! If you have an hour and a bit spare it's well worth a watch.

Great film. I do not fancy entering the race mind you.

Fantastic film. If you need inspiration to do trail running, this is it!

Great film, well worth a watch. Looks crazy difficult and the results absolutely support that.

I would love to see someone like Kilian Jornet give it a try. Having said that even if he breezed it, it would still mean you need to be superhuman!

Great documentary. Mental people. I have a friend who has run ultra-trail events and he said that he'd briefly considered trying to do the Barkley event and decided it was a bit much for him.
