Report a correctionAbout this race
The Antarctic Ice Ultra is run at Ultima Basecamp in the Schirmacher Oasis, Queen Maud Land, East Antarctica, reached by a five-hour Ilyushin-76 flight from Cape Town onto a blue-ice runway. Distances from half marathon up to 100 miles are covered on a 4.2 km out-and-back course of compressed snow, with softer snow and patches of bare ice in places. Temperatures typically run from -10C to -25C, aid stations sit every 5 km, and the cut-off is 24 hours.
