Lisa Tamati – The World’s Highest Running Race

If you have the chance to hear Lisa Tamati speak I highly recommend it. She is incredibly down to earth and just cracks on and gets the job done. An accomplished ultra runner, entrepreneurial jewelry designer and creator, public speaker and coach, is there anything else this inspiring woman intends to add to this adventurous list?

New Zealand does not have a huge number of ultra running Kiwi gals and to follow Lisa’s journey is inspiring as she heads out on incredible world adventures. This 52 minute documentary takes you through Lisa’s journey on the 222km Himalayas race in the Indian region of Ladakh. The distance alone is one aspect but to also be contending with altitude as well takes this extreme adventure to another level with issues of oxygen deprivation, body fueling, extreme heat and cold. When talking extreme running, this is one documentary not to be missed. An inspiring evening in tonight to get you thinking about your own pending weekend adventure.
