Held in the most pristine corner of the planet, runners will see icebergs, penguins, seals and whales.
Marathon Tours & Travel, the event organizer and exclusive tour operator, in conjunction with One Ocean Expeditions provide the itinerary for this unique experience to the end of the Earth.
Just getting to the location is marathon enough.
The Akademik Ioffe and Akademik Vavilov will make the journey from Ushuaia, located at the southern tip of Argentina, through the Beagle Channel across Drake Passage, through the Shetland Islands and along the Antarctic Peninsula.
The course on King George Island located off the tip of the Antarctic Peninsula has marked gravel roads that connect the scientific research bases of Uruguay, Chile, China and Russia. Great care is taken to leave behind zero impact on the environment in this sensitive ecosystem.
