"No course profile, no photos, no description or information on the event. To some extent, it is more obscure than the famed Barkley Marathon. It’s like the black hole of ultra running – an event exhibiting such a strong gravitational pull that no information can escape from it."

About the Film
“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity;
and I’m not sure about the universe.”
– Albert Einstein
Facing Infinitus explores the unique motivations of people inexorably drawn to a race deliberately designed to break competitors both mentally and physically.
Every mile takes us a step closer to understanding why these runners have committed themselves to more than just an ultramarathon.

Behind the Scene
This documentary reveals
that sometimes it takes such an event to prove we can overcome our fears, push our limits, and commit to something bigger than ourselves in racing and in life.
Facing Infinitus proves adversity introduces us to ourselves. This is the story of ordinary people with extraordinary spirit.
Everybody has their own race to run.
