Beyond the Edge: Risk, Reward, and Reality in Adventure
Presented by – Diane Van Deren, Ultrarunner & Karina Hollekim, Skier/BASE Jumper
Ultrarunner Diane Van Deren and extreme skier and BASE jumper Karina Hollekim have reached the heights of their sports, but they’ve also known adventure’s dark side. Norwegian-born Karina’s pro skydiving career was cut short by a leg-crushing aerial accident in 2006, while Diane spent ten years racked by epilepsy. After radical brain surgery, Diane won grueling endurance events like the Yukon Arctic Ultra, a 430 mile foot race across a frozen wilderness. Karina has endured twenty surgeries and has had to relearn to walk, but she aims for a return to the sports she loves. Their incredible journeys and their indomitable spirits will amaze and inspire.
