A documentary about an 88-year-old ultrarunner

“I’m at the point where I don’t need to do the easy things, I need to do the hard things to keep me in shape.”

The Hard Way, An Ultra Runner Pushes 90 is an upcoming documentary about 88-year-old American ultrarunner Bob Hayes. Hayes started running at 61 and has competed in more than 30 races a year ever since – from 5Ks to ultras.

The film is being produced by the University of Montana’s journalism department and will be released next summer.
