  • Undefeated: Journey To The Death Race is a documentary highlighting the Grande Prairie trail running and ultramarathon community and 4 runners competing in the gruelling Canadian Death Race, a race set in the beautiful rocky mountains near Grande Cache, Alberta.
    Participants of the Canadian Death Race endure dangerous elements and face everything from massive mountain elevation shifts, grizzly bears, other wild animals, and the ever-changing weather to push themselves to their personal limits. For many, it is much more than a race, it is a symbol of the personal hardships, challenges and goals that define one’s purpose through a journey of self-discovery, reflection and triumph. We share the stories of a few of these racers who took on these challenges, and for whom the Death Race is a way to honour themselves, and the value and uncertainty of life. The Death Race is celebrating its twentieth anniversary in 2019.
    A special thank you to the ultra-marathon community, the Triple Terrain Trail Trekkers running community, Jessica Winnemuller, Yasna Paola Aedo Martinez, Phil Troyer, Krista Mitchell, and Brian Gallant - Race Director for Sinister Sports for allowing the Undefeated: Journey To The Death Race production team tell their impactful stories.
