Beyond the Epic Run

This is a must see movie for any runner:

In February, 2000, a couple left home in Switzerland to run around the world...alone. A small crowd of friends and family gathered in the morning hours in the shadows of the Matterhorn in Sion , Switzerland . They were there to send Serge and Nicole Roehteli off with great fanfare to begin what would be an epic journey. With Nicole as his sole crew support, following him on a motorcycle towing a small trailer, Serge was setting off to run over 25,000 miles, on six continents and through 37 countries.

Serge ran more than 25,000 miles over five years with Nicole behind him. They traveled through 37 counties on six continents. While they were running through Africa , they both caught Malaria and almost died, but Serge and Nicole kept on truckin'. It's an amazing story of an athlete --and a loving wife's--physical and mental strength. They risked everything for this experience. Very inspiring for anyone trying to overcome any challenge or who just has a passion for the sport!
