Run in relatively warm (14 – 17 F) but still challenging conditions, the Antarctic Ice Marathon was won by 43 year old Belgian, Marc De
Keyser, with a record time of 4:42:32.
Low visibility and freezing sleet cut the number of competitors down in the 100k race, with only two runners completing the distance.
Austrian, Christian
Schiester, took the victory in 19:58:14.
Brit, Susan
Holliday, became the first woman to complete the 100k race in the three year history of the event.
The races took place December 19/20. Official race report (
