Spotlight Reviews
Stunning (2008-07-08)
Customer Review : 5
This movie is stunning and powerful. At points, it is raw-- as you watch these runners that may be very prepared but still may not finish such an amazing feat... it reminds you of life... not just running.
This is one of the best running movies in existence today.
Well worth it!!! (2008-05-28)

I absolutely loved this video!! The runners all have such unique personalities and I felt I was beginning to know them after watching this amazing run. The story was well told, music was very fitting, and the scenery was beautiful! This is a film I will watch again & again.
Fascinating (2008-04-25)
Customer Review : 5
I would recommend this movie to runners of all levels- or to anyone who just wants to be inspired. It is a firsthand account into the lives and (some would say crazy) minds of ultra-endurance runners. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie from start to finish. It really gives insight into how much passion these runners have for the sport and what the human body can endure. I wish that they would make a sequel!
I probably won't run this race... (2008-04-21)

I run ultras so I've absolutely heard of the infamous Badwater. It was amazing to see what those runners go through during the race. Really interesting characters. You'd have to be to run that race. Nice documentary. Not really any narration just shown from the runners' perspective.
motivational tool (2008-04-06)
Customer Review : 5
i first saw this video when darren worts (my colleague at a new jersey health club) was planning to do the badwater run about 6 years back. i was mesmerized and humbled by the dedication and drive (and insanity!) of the runners. i purchased the DVD and now use it as a motivational tool for my 4th semester physical fitness specialist majors at the college where i work. this is the last semester before they either "go out into the world" or continue their education. they are blown away and a most interesting class discussion follows the film. the purpose? you can achieve your goal...no matter. thanks for carrying the film. it took a few years to find it.
p.s. darren, in his first run, came in second: first male to cross the finish line. we were so proud.
