RegisterWelcome to the Inaugural – 2025 White Continent TriathlonTM!
For the first time ever a swim, bike, run event will be hosted in Antarctica and Marathon Adventures is happy to be the first, only and pioneer in this arena. This event will be hosted in conjunction with our White Continent 50k, Marathon & Half-Marathon®. The Triathlon will be limited to 15 Triathletes. Please note that others may attempt to copy this event. Or they may attempt to host an event earlier than ours. But know that as of March 2, 2023, no one has ever hosted a swim, bike, run event in Antarctica and no one has or is marketing or selling one, either. So if anyone attempts to copy our event, know it’s just that — a copy and NOT the real deal.
The swim will consist of upto a 400 meter swim, followed by a 20 km bike, and concluded with a 5km run. Final distances will be determined based upon final approval from governmental authorities.
The CONFIRMED dates for the 2025 WCT are: December 6-13, 2025.
We recommend registering as soon as possible as demand is high and spaces are going quickly.

Event Info
The 2025 White Continent TriathlonTM is the only opportunity for those who want to complete a real triathlon (i.e., swim, bike, run) in Antarctica to achieve that goal.
In addition, for those of you who are prone to sea sickness, which is a frequent occurrence when crossing the treacherous Drake Passage, there is no need to worry. We will cross the Drake Passage at a smooth and comfortable 31,000 Feet. As such, you don’t need to be concerned with being sick the day prior to running the marathon, as you might if you were to boat across The Fiery Drake.
Price Info
For the 2025 White Continent TriathlonTM Adventure, the prices are as follows: Double Occupancy (you will be rooming with another person you are traveling with) – $14,350; Single Occupancy (you will have a hotel room to yourself) – $14,950.
