Boundless

Season 1 Episode 4: Kenya: Born to Run

Oct 16, 2013 TV-PG 44m 8

The “Amazing Maasai Ultra” race pits a small field of international competitors against local Kenyans – considered some of the fastest runners on the planet – amid the heat and wilderness of the Laikipia Highlands. Simon is running this race without Turbo – he’s living in a small hut and learning all he can from the local Maasai Warriors – before pushing his physical and emotional extremes to complete the 75km single-day run.
