A Journey of 530 Kilometers | Back-to-back Ultra Marathons

  • Australia

Zheng Junyue, a wedding gown designer from Chengdu, China, is on the path to making history as the first Chinese woman to tackle the ultimate trail running challenge. It’s a back-to-back of two of the most grueling races, the Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc (UTMB), a 171-kilometer race around Mont Blanc, and the Tor des Géants, a 350-kilometer ultramarathon in the Aosta Valley, Italy. With only six days between each race.

The documentary follows Zheng through a personal journey of overcoming pain, learning the limits of her body and discovering herself. Will she overcome the elements, steep gradients, and everything else Europe’s highest mountains throw at her?

Her story celebrates not only personal achievement but also the spirit of endurance that ordinary people can have.
