Part IV: Trail Running at Little River Regional Park. Part four of the new PBS Ken Burns Documentary on trail running, endurance athletes and woodland creatures running in a snakey line on a beautiful Saturday morning.

The video, shot entirely on location January 12, 2008 is, quoting race director Joe "weezyl" Lea: "a reminder of the indefatigable human spirit as it strives to attain the greatest heights of challenge, love, and understanding along the universal time-space continuum." (That's beautiful, man!)

Them's words to chew on while you watch this astonishing video coverage by Matt McArthur.

Music: "Quiet Breathing" by Haley Bonar

Yes, "There's a river somewhere, flows through the lives of everyone...and it flows through the valleys and the mountains and the meadows of time..."
