Preparation

Prepare for time on Antarctic snow

Test your clothing system and keep optional expeditions distinct from the race booking.

Clothing and footwear

The gear guide recommends layered clothing, wind protection and spare dry base layers, gloves and socks. The FAQ recommends suitable trail shoes and traction aids for the mixed snow-and-ice surface. Follow the final equipment list and gear check.

Preparation

The training page advises preparing for the extra time spent on your feet. Your chosen distance, experience and conditions determine the appropriate training approach; no single public plan is presented as an entry guarantee.

Optional excursions

Penguin trips and other Antarctic excursions are separate from the core race experience unless expressly included in the booking. Weather, aircraft and local conditions can affect plans.

Your final participant instructions and approved event terms take priority. Check your dashboard for organizer updates.
