This is my documentary I made in 2006. Sold about 600 DVD copies so far, trying to sell the last 400.

Massanutten: 2 runners, 100 miles

"Massanutten: Two Runners, 100 Miles" is a documentary filmed at the 2006 running of the Massanutten Mountain Trail 100 (MMT) ultramarathon, near Front Royal, Virginia. The course follows roads and rocky trails with 19,000 feet of climbing. Runners have 36 hours to finish.

Gary and Kerry, along with numerous race volunteers, pacers and crews, show us the reality of competition in a 100 mile race, making this documentary a realistic picture of what this event is like.
