Paid to run an epic alpine trail. - Trail Running Documentary -Trailer

Trail runner and alpine enthusiast Mike Stone, might just have the best job in the world - If you enjoy running the rugged and steep 32km trail from one side of the majestic Routeburn track to the other in a day!
The Routeburn Track traverses both Mount Aspiring and Fiordland National Parks in the Southern Alps of New Zealand. It is part of the NZ Great Walk network and on average takes hikers 2-3 days to complete.
Mike’s company is the original car relocation business on the Routeburn track. He drives the client’s car to the end of the track, (350kms) parks it and secures their car key, then runs the 32km mountain track home.
We join him on his epic 258th run. It’s the ultimate alpine trail run adventure.

Having walked the Routeburn track 3 times this really inspires me - whens the full doco out?

[@FindYourFeetFilms]

Good question @Pup89 in a couple of weeks

[@WestieRunner]

Great stuff Aaron, and timely! I've got the Routeburn booked for early Dec and was just mulling over logistics: if I don't drop the car off and run round myself, I might well book Mike!

[@FindYourFeetFilms]

Awesome! You will love it! So epic, you should definitely run it. But if not trackhopper is the go!

[@michaelf9418]

Hey,
just stumbled over this video. I met one key runner and talk to him in 2018 when I was hicking the Te Araroa.
Already then thought that there aren't many jobs that are bettet than this.
Is there already a relase date? Would love to see the full documentary.
Cheers Michael

[@FindYourFeetFilms]

Hi, yep you are right, he has a pretty good job. It’s looking like being finished beginning of October. Cheers

[@michaelf9418]

Oh lovely, so I am looking forward for October.
Thank you for your response.
