- Martin Johnson embarks on his most challenging run, as he explores the connection between Black British history and the River Thames.
Martin attempts to set a new fastest known time on the 184-mile Thames Path-running from the Thames Barrier in London to the source of the river in the Cotswolds. What starts as a grueling and ambitious record-breaking attempt turns into a journey of discovery. He learns both about himself and the entangled history between Black people and the river. Martin hopes his run will encourage more diversity in the sport of trail running and inspire others to get out beyond the city and run.
Tune in on February 23rd at 10am PST / 1pm EST / 6pm GMT / 7pm CET to watch the online premiere. Martin will be joined by the cast and crew to answer your questions.
I watched this last night. WOW! WOW! Martin Johnson, thank you so much for sharing your journey. #mustwatch ❤❤❤
terrific film. Thank you for posting this video.
you're an absolute hero MJ - i can't believe how wet it was, your feet looked destroyed and still you pushed through. Just inspiring man, being from the UK it was also sobering to hear more about the windrush generations. I am 38 and have little or no concept of what your ancestors went through but i am motivated to learn more. Keep it up, big love forpe.
I've watched many of trail running documentaries, and this one brought tears to my eyes. The history of Black people intertwined with your story was a lot. I know the pain all to well being an ultra runner, and being the only one in the space the majority of the time can be overwhelming but I still line up to run. THIS WAS FANTASTIC!! CONGRATULATIONS!!I hope that you NEVER STOP!! CLAIM that place at the start line and in nature!!! Much love to you!!
Wow! Powerful. Emotional. Inspiration. Educational. Fantastic film. Congratulations! 👏
Congrats on the FKT, amazing running! Really enjoyed the film too. I live in an area with very few people of colour and its only been in the last year that I've become aware of and begun to appreciate the issues you face in todays society (thanks to the Black Trail Runners videos and other wider media coverage) . Thank you for raising awareness and I hope the UK can continue to grow to be inclusive of all minority groups.
Loved the juxtaposition of history, poetry, racial issues and athletic spirit!
Outstanding film. So powerful. Thank you for sharing this wonderful story and journey. 👍🏾👏🏾
A really great film, I love the inclusion of the poem over shots of the River.
Oh my gosh congratulations MJ and everyone involved. Immense achievement and message.
Thank you for the inspiration
Beautiful movie great achievement and powerful message 🙌
Beautiful, painful, triumphant. Thanks very much for creating and sharing this story.
Amazing I loved this, MJ you are so humble and talented, it made me homesick thankyou 😊
Who' s cutting onions? What an inspiration he is🙏.
Congratulations on the monumental effort to complete the run, set the FKT, and document the adventure and the important issues raised in such a beautiful and inspiring film!
I started watching this video because a)I love running (10km is my best though!)
b)I live on the Thames
c)I want to do the barrier to source walk/run
But I got so much more from this! The connection to nature through running, encouraging all people to give it a go, BLM awareness raising, story of growing up, history of it all and my favourite bit - the kids! As a mum of a child with DS Ned was a highlight! Well done! Will be sharing widely.
You're inspiring, MJ! Thank you!
Amazing! Fantastic production and what an achievement MJ! You blow my mind!!

absolutely beautiful and painful to watch at the same time
This film is a true emotional ride (or, run). Martin's story paired with the immigrants history story made a lot of impact. Lost some tears during watching... Thank you, Martin, and thank you, film crew!
A beautiful watch. Editing was excellent, the way it was spliced along with that poem was very emotional. Also Congratulations, crazy amount of mental strength to push through!
Amazing and very inspiring well done !!!!
Amazing achievement! That is some incredible mileage across some difficult terrain 👏
Absolutely awesome film; well done MJ inspirational stuff 👏👏👏

Now that was some great inspirational content! And, wow, what an achievement!
very inspiring... this will make me take up jogging
A huge achievement and a really inspiring film. Congratulations to MJ and the team. ✌🏻
As always, a beautiful and inspiring film! Feels good to be presented with such strong and positive narratives.
Hopefully a lot more people are going to run that trail now, and embark in this healthy competition.
awesome film... moving. thank u
Yes Martin! Great stuff!
Well done to Martin ,Martins family,support team and Patagonia, really inspirational and informative. Yes I think it could be a very important to get back to our roots, and become less urban, moving out to the countryside and running, cycling,walking it is such a great way to spend time away from an artificial construct that are cities, who needs the negative self distructive habits which seem as the only way to cope when there is all that open space and fresh air available. Just because people where corralled into the city for manual labour jobs in the past doesnt necessarily need to be our future, this is most relevat to immigrants, working class people. Blowing off steam and troubling noone
I'm pumped up
Well done mate! Thanks a lot for sharing your journey and perspective on trail running!
Incredible, great film and awesome dedication from MJ to push through the pain and struggles to set a new FKT.
Fantastic achievement and great film documenting your story. I hope your feet have recovered and that your group Black Trail Runners goes from strength to strength. Given the flooding in Oxfordshire I'm sure you would have done it faster.
Hermoso 💚. Felicidades hermano, saludos desde Argentina
Nice work MJ!

I Start every day with a run.. that way it can’t get any worse😂
