Matt McConnell — Mountain Runner

A documentary-style photo story with Co. Wicklow based mountain runner Matt McConnell, focused on endurance, movement, landscape and atmosphere. Shot in natural overcast conditions, using a flash. The project captures the different aspects of mountain running: the quiet preparation, physical effort, and the role of the ever changing environment.

On separate occasions we filmed his efforts as he prepares for the Dublin Marathon. These videos were turned into Instagram reels and an episode of his running Youtube series “Rocky Road To Dublin”.
