Unbreakable: The Western States 100 - Journeyfilm Official Trailer

A new Film by JB Benna and Journeyfilm coming 11-25-2011. Visit http://www.ws100film.com for more info.

Synopsis: On June 26, 2010 four of the greatest ultramarathoners on earth toed the start line in Squaw Valley at the Western States 100-mile endurance run, the oldest and most prestigious 100-mile foot race.

Journeyfilm's forthcoming documentary "Unbreakable: The Western States 100" follows the four lead men on this amazing journey. Hal Koerner, two time defending Western States champion, and running store entrepreneur from Ashland, Oregon. Geoff Roes, undefeated at the 100-mile distance, an organic chef from Juneau, Alaska. Anton Krupicka, undefeated in every ultramarathon he has ever started, a graduate student living in Boulder, Colorado. Killian Jornet, the young mountain runner and two time Ultra-trail du Mont-Blanc champion, from Spain.

The film shadows each runner from the pre-race preparation in their hometowns to the daily life they each lead in and outside of running. While their lives may be quite different, the goal is the same: win the Western States 100-mile run. Only one will win and the journey is unforgiving.

With unprecedented access, the film takes the viewer on the course and with each of the crews, pacers and family members who are working to get their runner across the finish line. From battling injury to surprising changes in the lead, to in-depth interviews with race champions and ultrarunning figureheads, "Unbreakable: The Western States 100" showcases perhaps the most exciting race of its kind.


The Race:

(Description From Wikipedia) The Western States Endurance Run, known commonly as the Western States 100, is a 100-mile long (161 km) ultramarathon that takes place on trails in California's Sierra Nevada annually, on the last weekend of June. The race starts at the base of the Squaw Valley ski resort and finishes at the Placer High School track in Auburn, California. Runners climb a cumulative total of 18000 feet (5500 m) and descend a total of 23000 feet (7000 m) on mountain trails before reaching the finish. Because of the length of the race, the race begins at 5:00 A.M. and continues through the day and into the night. Runners finishing before the 30 hour overall time limit for the race receive a bronze belt buckle, while runners finishing in under 24 hours receive a silver belt buckle.

Can't wait for the digital download. Looks really interesting. One note though. What a horrible horrible font to use...

[journeyfilm]

Thanks for the note. We actually did change the font for the film.

Nothing like watching inspiring clips about ultra distance running while eating ruffles to make me feel like a fat piece o' shit...

[Petr Herold]

You have to make it digital. iTunes or whatever. I want to give you my money too!!

[septicmeatball]

There are women that run this... they just didn't show them.

[camadamson1]

[gcalmettes]

available now (at least for the SD)

[dimitris katsafouros]

Same thing here. Please make the digital download available. Right now we see the three options for resolution available but that's about it. After going to the kart it says that none are available...

[robdeperla]

When will it be available for download? The websites says no downloads in stock, how does that work? Thanks

[odrzewo]
