In 2016, I managed to set a speed record (Fastest Known Time) on the 750-mile Oregon Desert Trail (ODT) in 17 days and 15 hours. The Restlessly Relentless movie series is an attempt to document the 2-year project from its germination to its termination.
If you binge-watch all the episodes, you’ll need 1h 24min 46s of your time.
