"In Y Ddraig, former professional climber and elite mountain runner Shane Ohly attempts the unimaginable, to conquer the Dragon’s Back Race® in a single, non-stop push. Spanning 380km from Conwy to Cardiff, this iconic Welsh challenge is typically completed over 6 days. Supported only by a dedicated crew of friends, Shane’s journey is an extraordinary test of physical and mental endurance. Through exhilarating highs, crushing lows, and awe-inspiring landscapes, Y Ddraig captures the grit and glory of one man’s race against his own limits. A truly legendary adventure that redefines the meaning of perseverance."
