Tony Martin, CEO of EWR, describes the race as “Longer than England, colder than vodka and harder than granite”.

To compete, you must be self-sufficient on the ice with temperatures as low as -40 degrees C and winds of up to 200km/h and can choose between either the 155 mile ‘Sprint’ or 379 mile ‘Marathon’ by bike, ski, foot, kite-ski and kite buggy.

Start your journey in the ancient Cossack city of Irkutsk and compete in one of the world’s most beautiful wildernesses. This is an entirely new category of endurance racing and your chance to experience the unique challenge of racing on ice in Siberia.

Once finished, you will have the opportunity to complete your Siberian experience with a memorable journey on the legendary Trans-Siberian Express* (* for Marathon entrants). As the longest and most iconic rail journey in the world, the Trans-Siberian is one of the great adventures in travel. Winding through vast wildernesses, magical landmarks and a myriad of cultures, there is no better way to cap what is set to be one of the most epic experiences on the planet.
