A fascinating case of one person against the elements in Antarctica, the Arctic, Sahara Desert, Yukon, Peru, Greece and Ireland. What are the ingredients that make an ultra runner go through such grueling mental and physical pain? How is an ultra runner different from a marathon runner? This intriguing story reveals what makes him tick using the background story of his participation in the 2010 2500Th anniversary 'Spartathlon'.
