History and heroic running feats collide in Beau’s latest short film, A Bloody Long Run Episode 1.

 

If we know anything about Beau Miles, it’s that he bloody loves to run. But in his latest feast-for-the-senses short film, he’s using his feet to delve into the tumultuous history of Gippsland, Victoria and untangle the colonial history he’s been taught from the more sinister truth. All the while running 220km across an extremely unkempt and gruelling track in three days.

Let’s just say, this video isn’t the end of the story. Tuck in and get antsy for part two!
