Desert Runners - Inspiring Journey through World's Toughest Terrains


Hey trail runners! Here's a new film called Desert Runners that follows a group of athletes as they complete RacingthePlanet’s Four Deserts Grand Slam, the most difficult desert ultra-marathon series on Earth. The runners trek across four 250km ultra-marathons in the world's driest (Atacama Desert in Chile), windiest (Gobi Desert in China), hottest (Sahara Desert in Egypt) & coldest (Antarctica) terrains, all the while carrying everything they need to survive.


The film is now available for digital download and DVD, as well as screening across the country. You can watch the trailer here: http://www.desertrunnersmovie.com/

ATRA followers can get 10% off the digital download by using the code "ATRA".
