One Man, Two Feet, Three Peaks documents the attempt by Tony Riddle to run more than two marathons a day and complete the entire National Three Peaks Challenge on foot.
Tony Riddle was born with clubfoot and experienced traumatic treatment as a child. He has subsequently dedicated his life to seeking freedom through natural movement – becoming an ultra-endurance athlete at 44 years old.
The National Three Peaks Challenge normally involves scaling the UK’s three highest peaks — Mt Snowdon in Wales, Scafell Pike in England, Ben Nevis in Scotland — in 24hrs, while driving the 465 miles between the peaks. Instead, Tony wants to run the entire distance in nine days, attempting to break a record. In an added twist, he decides to lose the shoes and scale all three peaks barefoot.
With his wife and four children in tow, this becomes about much more than breaking a record. It becomes a pilgrimage, a journey to find what he calls Tony 2.0. A broken toe and extreme weather conditions are just some of the physical elements Tony endures along the way, but it’s his mental and emotional strength that proves the biggest test.
