This really highlights how essential Gemma is to the whole operation. From all of the technical crewing details, to keeping a cool head once the pain starts and Phil's mood plummets. What a champion.

I agree, it was fascinating seeing two different “Gemma’s” …there was Gemma the coach, lead crew member and mentor who took no shit and showed zero vulnerability ! then in certain circumstances there was Gemma the partner, lover and carer who was very vulnerable, worried but also very proud. This gave me so many moments of goosebumps it was a joy to watch. Absolutely outstanding performance from both of you. #TeamGore

"This is the part of the race where you just listen to me and do what you are told" - When things get hard in our lives we all need that person.....who has our best interest and just tells us what to do.

I wish I had a Gemma in my life. So much love and support it's amazing and really inspiring. In my opinion she deserves a coin too. Thank you for this documentary!

Finally got round to watching this and what a treat! An incredible journey. Phil and Gemma are the golden couple of the backyard ultra world in my eyes and this film shows why! Gemma has crewing down to utter perfection and Phil, what an inspiration, just amazing perseverance and shows how much we can push through if we want to enough. Thanks so much for another awesome film 👍

Phil, you inspire me to no end. Your journey is beyond remarkable. Having watched the Dead Cow Gully backyard ultra documentary many times and now this documentary of the World Championship, you and Gemma are legends.

This has been amazing to watch, and has pumped me up to try my first BYU. Thanks Phil and Gemma

Amazing to be able to watch this and footage from the event. How can you not get emotional when you hear Gemma get emotional when Phil beats the world record. Both Phil and Gemma are legends!

Really cool! Well done Phil and Gemma!

Really enjoyed this! The coverage of Bigs was amazing, by far the best of any Backyard ever. However, I was really looking forward so seeing some good HD documentaries coming out of it.

We used to train together when he first started running, when his only focus was getting through 5km a day and outrunning smoking. Crazy to see how far he's come.

Well done Gemma and Phil. A true power duo and partnership!

Amazing accomplishment and a true testimony to Phil's inner strength AND the love, support from Gemma. She is/was incredible and an integral factor to his success. Congrats to BOTH of you....i just started Ultra running but i really hope to have the honor of crossing paths with you guys at a race! Once more, CONGRATS!

and Phil, "eat your noodles!" lol =)

Wow what a support crew you had! Couldn’t ask for better in a race like that

Ya love to see nurse Gemma come out 😂 "this is the part where you do what I say"

Great job phill and Gemma julie is my grandma

It's just like dealing with kids (ours anyway): "You don't need to be on your phone, eat your noodles!!!" Love it. Well done team! Great effort at the race and this documentary of it is awesome. Phil will get it back next time!

Love the experience > thanks for sharing. Very emotional and inspiring ❤

Massive achievement Phil. Such an inspiration for all us out there pushing ourselves. Thanks for sharing the highs and lows on the journey

Great to watch, so interesting seeing the struggles even for the top tier. just got to wonder how the travel and timezone differences played a part at the extremes.

Gemma “it’s a stupid race… let’s be honest!” 25:14 😂😂😂
