Finding Gobi tells the true story of how British ultramarathon runner Dion Leonard met a tiny stray dog during a grueling 155-mile race across the Gobi Desert. As the race progressed, the dog—later named Gobi—began following Dion, eventually running alongside him for nearly 80 miles. When the race ended, Dion didn’t want to leave her behind. But bringing Gobi home to Scotland proved to be an emotional and logistical challenge. Gobi went missing in China during the journey, and what followed was a tense, heartwarming search involving local helpers, suspense, and relentless determination.
