“Triple Corona” recounts in a documentary film, complications in the most demanding Mountain Running circuit in Mexico called ’Sólo Para Salvajes' and, specifically revolves around the trilogy of SkyRaces known as “La Triple Corona”. The 3 races are explained by the Race Director and organizer: La Malinche, where from its top you can contemplate 4 other important peaks in Mexico. IZTA 4000, a furious race with 2,000 m of ascent and 2,000 back to the starting point through aqueducts and water pipes. And finally, the SkyMarathon where snow and icy conditions make the challenge even bigger as you ascend up to 4,860 meters to the returning point. Runners dig deep in their interior, speaking about their connection with the mountain, nature and God.
