Premiere Screening of Tor Des Geants Film

October 3, 2019 by Jeff Pelletier No Comments

In the fall of 2018, I travelled to Italy to test myself against the world-famous Tor Des Geants – a 200 mile (330km) trail run with over 24,000m of ascent. I carried a camera to document my journey.

Join me for the premiere of my 45-minute documentary “Tor Des Geants, Among the Giants of the Alps”. After the screening there will be a Q&A with me, along with some great prizes from Salomon.

It feels so good to be able to run again! This wee It feels so good to be able to run again! This week marked the first time I've been able to run on the trails and my longest run in over 5 weeks.

Two weeks before that, I had strained my hamstring during a run so I took a week off to let it rest. I obviously should have taken it more seriously as the following week I suffered a grade 2 hamstring tear while running in the snow. I ended up with bruising and couldn’t walk more than a few steps without pain.

If you follow me on Strava, you've no doubt noticed all of the rehab runs and strength training I've been dutifully doing as I work weekly with a physio on a rehabilitation program. I believe the injury was actually not the result of overuse, but likely due entirely to mobility issues in my hips and hamstrings. I'd put in a half-dozen days on skis in the two weeks prior and hadn't been doing a lot of running, but I had been doing a lot of sitting. 

So I've got lots of work to come as I continue to address the underlying issues, to slowly rebuild volume, and to ensure that I come back even stronger so that I can set myself up for success for the rest of the season and beyond! 🚀
Overwhelmed by all the positive feedback that @gar Overwhelmed by all the positive feedback that @garyrobbins and I have received about The Big Chill over the past few weeks. Over 170,000 cumulative views and counting, and so many comments, shares, and reviews. Thank you! 🙏

It’s hard to make plans with any kind of certainly at the moment, but it’s always a good time to work on your bucket list! Mine seems to be growing at an exponential rate as of late 🧐. What kind of experiences are you dreaming of?
