Watch our first film - The Spirit of Trail Running which won the 2018 Las Vegas Running Film Festival - Best Trail Running Film Award!! Out of 125 submissions this short film tied for the highest rated film of the festival!!
Trail running reawakens our ancient connection to the wild. In this short film we wanted to capture the spirit of trail running, why we run, why it's such a special and personal experience. We also wanted to show that ANYONE CAN TRAIL RUN! You don't have to be elite, it's open to all. We hope this film inspires you to rediscover your wild through trail running!
Special Thanks to A Higher Perspective Film & Photography for their production and direction. Copyright: Words and Footage: Run the Wild & AHP Film. Location: Mont Blanc, France. Special thanks to Paul, Tim, Alister, Kate, Dan, Georgie, Karin, Bailey & Lottie!
