A documentary on the longest relay race in the world
HOOD TO COAST: Directed by Christoph
Baaden. Produced and Co-Directed by Marcie
Hume. Executive Produced by Bill Campbell.
Produced by Anna Campbell. 101 minutes.
N
early two hundred miles of
plodding pain, 12,000 runners,
1,000 teams, it is a gauntlet
that no single person could do alone.
You need vans, coolers full of water,
fruit, sandwiches, Powerbars. You need
willpower and grit. You need a little bit of
crazy, too, in the right way.
The fi lm Hood to Coast, directed by
Christoph Baaden, follows the nonstop
overnight Hood to Coast relay race, the
longest relay in the world. Taking place
in Oregon, the race snakes from Mount
Hood to the Pacifi c Ocean in Seaside.
Documenting the quest of several teams
as they traverse this physically punishing
race, the movie is a refl ection of everyday
people and their self-infl icted personal right
of passage. Long distance relay running is
just the vehicle; these people are driving
themselves towards something far greater
than the contest of running. Kathy Ryan,
67, retired school teacher and survivor of
17 Hood to Coast runs, embarks on yet one
more of these epic relays after suffering a
nearly fatal heart attack during the 2007
race. Her doctor insists that she wears a
heart monitor to regulate her pace; she still
insists on running.
A collection of mourning family
members take on the relay in tribute to their
deceased loved one — at times communing
with the dead man while the lonely torture
of the race takes its toll. A group of men
over the age of 50 (some of whom look
like leathery, ass-kicking man-beasts), who
call their team “The Dead Jocks in a Box,”
treat the race like a circus as they gripe
about the pain of aging yet place in the top
six of their division annually. As with most
sports, the physical act is not what makes
severe participation worthwhile. It is the
need for transcendence and challenge that
beckons people to do this.
Watching the fi lm, one can’t help but
cheer on each team. Even “Team Thunder
N’ Laikaning,” a group of animators from
Portland who insist on eating burgers and
drinking beer all the way up to the onset of
the race, evoke a sense of affection from
the viewer as multiple 3 to 5 mile legs of
Hood to Coast eat away at the runners. This
relay is a mythic feat for its participants,
and watching the fi lm as it follows the
onset, progress and conclusion of the
race forces the viewer to face a cultural
reality of our generation(s): We don’t
have an overarching national/cultural right
of passage, we only have bits and pieces
of individual subcultures that we use to
defi ne ourselves. These subcultures vary
in extremity, from Burning Man to cage
fi ghting and everything in between.
The runners of Hood to Coast are
yet one more beautiful band of weirdoes
choosing to haze themselves in the baptism
of their own religion: running. They run
into the sunrise and all through the night. It
is nothing short of excessive. Their teams
support them, but each runner must battle
the topographical rollercoaster of Hood to
Coast alone. Baaden’s fi lm captures this
and more, leaving the viewer in awe and
fear of what can and cannot be achieved
by those who seek to defi ne a life beyond
normalcy.
