Running for Good: The Fiona Oakes Documentary

Overview

World record marathon runner Fiona Oakes strives to set a new endurance record by tackling the grueling Marathon Des Sables, a 250km race across the Sahara Desert. Known for being the fastest woman to complete marathons on all seven continents and the North Pole, Fiona's accomplishments are remarkable given the odds she faced. Diagnosed with severe mobility issues at 14, she endured over 17 knee surgeries, resulting in the removal of her right kneecap. Driven by a passion for animal welfare, her feats also support a sanctuary she diligently manages, raising awareness for the voiceless.
