"Finding Traction" presents the inspirational story of ultra runner Nikki Kimball and her quest to become the fastest person in history to run America's oldest hiking trail, the 273-mile Long Trail. The documentary asks what drives her to attempt such an incredible feat, and follows Nikki's journey from its beginning - training and racing in the Rocky mountains - to her actual record attempt through Vermont's beautiful but brutal Green Mountains.

Finding Traction Audience Reviews

EssenceStory Well Deserved Praise
Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
Ortiz Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
crueltyfreeeating I wouldn't have my daughter watch this documentary. Nikki's consumption of sugared soft drinks, bacon, white bread processed meat sandwiches in some scenes while talking about kids who are fat in other scenes bothered me. Perhaps you can eat what you want when you run. You can. But should you? Her diet is no inspiration. And no one should exercise to the level that Nikki does. There is a whole lot of unhealthy in this documentary including emotional breakdowns that don't help her cause. She needs a whole team to deliver her junk food diet to her as well as water and bandages and etc. while she races. Ladies . . . we can do better. No amount of cool music and slow motion running shots can save this documentary from disaster.
