Fiona Oakes has made a name for herself as a unique endurance runner. She is the fastest woman in the world to run a marathon on all seven continents and the north pole. Her achievements are even more astounding as she was told at 14 she would never walk properly, let alone run.

She underwent 17 radical knee surgeries that ultimately led to having her entire kneecap removed; the process was agonising and the rehab even worse, but she prevailed against all odds.
In this film, Award-winning director Keegan Kuhn (Cowspiracy, What The Health) turned her incredible story into a feature-length sports documentary that follows Fiona in her attempt not only to set a new global record in endurance racing, but to compete in the “toughest footrace on earth”: the Marathon Des Sables, a 250km race through the Sahara Desert.
