A sports shoe retailer based in Shipley opened its headquarters to the public, partners and competition winners for what was billed as the UK's only screening of a famous athlete's new film.
SportsShoes.com showed 'Into The (Un)Known,' which documents a journey through the mind of long-distance trail runner Kílian Jornet.
The event also gave attendees a preview of the footwear and apparel for the spring/summer 2025 season of NNormal, Mr Jornet's brand.

Ben Mounsey, marketing executive at SportsShoes.com and organiser of the event, said: "We are absolutely delighted to have had the opportunity to showcase this one-off film premiere from one of the world's greatest athletes, treating our guests to an unforgettable evening."
SportsShoes.com Ultra Member, Lisa Burns, said: "Wow, what an evening!
"I drove from Liverpool last night with my sister and we had a brilliant time.
"It was such a well thought out and organised event."
The film depicts Mr Jornet's return to the Pyrenees, where he’d spent time with his family as a child.
He linked all the major 3000m peaks in the range over eight days, and noticed evidence of glacial retreat during the feat.
The event included a live video question and answer session with Mr Jornet, in which he discussed perseverance, training tips and sustainability.
