The Coolest Marathon in the World - At the North Pole
Wrapped warmly against the cold, a group of runners set off for the barren white landscape for one very cool race - the North Pole Marathon.
Some 50 running enthusiasts from around the world braved harsh conditions for a 42.2-km (26.2 miles) race on the frozen ice of the Arctic Ocean, staged at the Barneo Ice Camp.
Wearing balaclavas, goggles, gloves and layers of thermal clothing, participants had to complete 12 laps of a course lined with markers. A refreshment tent was on hand for those needing hot drinks, snacks and to warm up.
As well as the cold, runners were also faced with soft snow and small ice pressure ridges.
