2012 film released online

At the time only run once before in 1992, the legendary Dragon’s Back Race® was revived in 2012 by Shane Ohly of Ourea Events.

Now, in 2018, we're delighted to release the full length 2012 film for online viewing having previously been available exclusively on DVD and select digital download services. The film takes you in to the heart of this inspiring adventure as the 2012 race weaved its brutal path down the mountainous spine of Wales; 200 miles long - 17,000 metres of ascent - 5 days

Follow 84 competitors as they battle fatigue, blisters and their own mental and physical limits. Compelling, intimate and beautiful, we’re pretty pleased with how it’s turned out. A great portrayal of mountain running.
— Rich Heap, Director, Slackjaw Films
