FROM MOUNTAINS TO COASTS - 20 year old runs arctic ultra

From Mountains To Coasts is a film that follows ultrarunner Anna Simonsson-Søndenå as she attempts her longest run yet, 100 miles through the northern Norwegian archipelago of Lofoten.
With the support of Mount To Coast, the film highlights the need for sustainable tourism in this vulnerable region of the Arctic circle.

Lean back and join Anna on this memorable adventure through The Lofoten Islands, under the northern lights, through sun and rain, wildlife encounters and more.

This was crazy. Talking about Anna's run of course, but also the cinematography! The best thing I've watched in a long time.

This whole movie was so inspirational. Incredible performance by Anna. Only 20 years old running such a distance, still with a smile on her face

[lorenzofonseca]

I felt such peace watching this. The journey with Anna, the breathtaking scenery, the hauntingly beautiful music, all that together made such an impactful piece of film. You should all be proud of this amazing feat ♥

[Kelly_Ben]

Incredible- the running AND the scenery. Congratulations! And shout out to the awesome crew who made it possible. I can't wait to see where you go from here!

One thought... wearing all black made you very difficult for motorists to see, even in broad murky daylight. At night, with just a few strips of reflective gear, it's a very good thing your amazing pacer friend was wearing the yellow vest!

I loved what you said about the freedom of your feet, how they can take you anywhere...
(Irish proverb) "Your feet with bring you to where your heart is". Beautiful video

[andresk.]

what a beautiful place, and your courage and determination is out of the park. The people who supported you during this run are also incredible. It reminds me an African proverb : "If you wanna go fast, go alone. If you wanna go far, go together".

Well done Anna on your beautiful run 💪 🏃‍♀️ But also a big shout out to your film maker who’s filming captured your journey so fantastically 👍

[melaniem]

The best of sport in one of the most magical spots on earth. A timely reminder, in this shrinking world, of the value of taking time to appreciate the moment you are in. Congratulations on the achievements in the run and the portrayal.

This wonderful film reminds me of Lofoten 20 years ago- running means a lot to me and make me who I am now. Competing against others is not the same as competing against yourself. Against others- you can lose- against yourself you will always win🙏‼️ Congrats‼️

[natalgol]

Anna, jag beundrar dig, din vilja, din atletiska träning, din uthållighet och förmåga att övervinna mänskliga svårigheter.

[flovera]

Btw although your parents by the sounds of it are no longer together they are raising a awesome person keep up the hard work the world is yours and the sky is the limit 👌

[anderson]

Outstanding achievement! I expected you to be in shrimp shorts and a clunky safety vest, but even without that, this was a really enjoyable, high-quality film to watch, especially for free on YouTube. I liked the details, like the scene at 18:25. It was so minimalist and calm. Your positive energy is amazing. Keep it up!

[vidarvikestad]

Proud coach! Looking forward to the next adventures🙏
