Dion Leonard's lifestyle was killing him. Weighing 250 pounds; Dion’s uncontrollable eating habits, heavy smoking and excessive drinking to hide the demons from his abusive and turbulent childhood were leading him to an early grave.
Dion’s iron will and innate ability to survive led him to become one of the worlds top ultra runners competing in some of the toughest and most extreme ultra challenges across the planets most inhospitable locations. One act of kindness would change Dion’s life forever during an endurance race in the Chinese Gobi Desert when a stray dog ran with him, forming an unbreakable bond that would become the ultimate challenge of overcoming adversity to achieve the unachievable.
