In the midst of a summer riddled with uncertainty, Jean-François (Jeff) Cauchon, one of Canada’s top ultrarunners, attempted to set a new world record. Jeff’s grounded resilience fueled his epic ambitions to break the current record for greatest elevation gain on foot in 24 hours.

In this short docu film, we follow Jeff’s mighty efforts and events leading up to his world record challenge, and disclose the cascading events that followed. Physically and mentally strong, Jeff’s actions reveal his level-headed approach to a slightly insane objective.
