5.0 out of 5 stars The British Columbia Scenery is breathtaking, May 1, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Eco-Challenge: British Columbia Series [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The Discovery Channel Eco-Challenge Adventure Race is an extraordinary 300 mile competition involving running, canoeing, whitewater rafting, mountain biking, mountain climbing, glacial travel, hiking and swimming swift icy rivers in the rugged wilderness of Canada's British Columbia. Just by luck I caught the 1998 Eco Challenge from Australia on the Discovery Channel and loved it, so when I saw this set available I had to order it. The perserverance of these 5 person teams is unbelievable. Watching them raft, run, ride and climb is inspiring. The arrival of the storm almost made it seem to be Hollywood scripted. The camera work was extrodinary. 3 hours and 39 minutes of awe. I've seen the Australian and Morrocco challenges on TV but will be ordering them to relive these great adventures. Great!

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for treadmill runners!!, January 26, 1999

I put this video in for the 30 minutes or so that I run on the treadmill each day and it inspires me to great things! These are not spoiled, pampered over-paid athletes that compete. They are people like all of us and most of them are well into their 40's and above. Their effort is unbeleivable. The video also has great stories, wonderful photography and fantastic quotes about nature and the environment.

I have enjoyed all the Eco-Challenge videos, as I watched them when they originally aired. The scenery is outstanding in British Columbia. The videos are educational as well as entertaining. I enjoy selecting my favorite teams and participants in the race. I have been very disappointed that the Eco-Challenge no longer takes place.
