SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE CHALLENGE 2023

4 Marathons - 4 Countries - 2 Continents​
​

Uruguay - Argentina - Chile - Antarctica​
Picture

​After the success of inaugural 4 countries, 2 continents challenge in 2020, we are proud to announce the next edition of  Southern Hemisphere Challenge in 2023. Due to COVID-19, the 2021 & 2022 editions have been cancelled. 

Join us for a unique running adventure where participants would have the chance to complete a marathon in Uruguay, Argentina, Chile and Antarctica in a little over one week.  

BREAKING NEWS:  In 2023, instead of camping, runners will spend the night aboard the ship while in Antarctica. Post marathon, runners will enjoy the comfort of sleeping in cozy cabins with access to proper washrooms and showers. Not only that, hot meals (B,L,D) will be served in the dining area with access to a bar and all the luxuries the ship has to offer. Moreover, the fly / cruise adventure will ensure that we will not have to sail across the unpredictable drake passage both ways.

DATES: Feb 3 - 12, 2023
