This clip is from the soon to be released feature on the 2007 Grand Island Trail Marathon. Grand Island Trail Marathon is a rugged trail marathon that takes place every summer in the UP. If the inherent distance of the marathon didn't make it challenging enough, the runners have to deal with extreme terrain and environment. Bells are recommended to "warn" the bears of your presence. This clip takes place at the 22 mile mark. The conditions are starting to wear on the runners. Featured music in this clip is from Milwaukee's own Longacre.
This race was a beast. Didn't know what I was getting myself into :-). Well worth the pain though!

I ran this race in 2007 and it was much harder than I had anticipated. My 3:07 road marathon was equal to a 3:33 trail at Grand Island.
