Chasing Altitude

Those hiking to any of the Mt. Everest base camps are told to go slow and take long and deep breaths to avoid getting dizzy due to the lack of oxygen. It's, however, different for extreme endurance athlete Mike Allsop.

In Chasing Altitude, he's attempting to do what no human being has done ever before. Join this superb athlete as he attempts to run 26.2 miles at an altitude higher than anyone has done before and at a height very few will reach outside an airplane: 16,000 feet.

If he succeeds, it'll the highest marathon ever!
