Running in the footsteps of a murderer (Ep 1)

A BLOODY LONG RUN - EPISODE 1: In 1864 the mass murdering pastoralist Angus McMillan cut an ambitious 220km path through the mountains between two remote gold mining towns in the heart of Victoria, Australia. 120 years later a group of bushwalkers stitched the trail back together. When I found out about the track I decided to run it, thinking ‘gee, this track has a story to tell’! Running 73 km a day for three days over steep, often unmarked terrain, and having grown up thinking McMillan was a colonial hero, there was a lot of terrain, and thinking, to be absorbed. I’d finally embarked on a running adventure that wasn’t just about running. -- Produced and Directed by BEAU MILES Produced and Edited by MITCH DRUMMOND Produced by JODI EVANS Everyone needs a Charlie CHARLIE SHOWERS Filmed by MITCH DRUMMOND BRETT CAMPBELL CHRIS ORD BEAU MILES Final Sound Mix JAMES DOBSON Colour Correction LUCY CAWOOD -- Goodonya PATAGONIA for their support.
