Continents

Ilya Slepov

IRONMAN 70.3 World Champion

One of the most experienced triathletes in the world, Ilya has raced on every continent. Except one.

The Last White Spot

Antarctica - the last white spot on the triathlon map. That gap became a challenge. A call to take triathlon competition to the edge of the world, ruled by wind and ice.

This is how ANTARCTIC 100 was born. A triathlon against nature itself, against the limits of the human body and spirit. Not for records, but for discovery.

For those who believe that endurance is more than strength -
it's courage, resilience, and the will to move forward
when everything says "stop."

The Team Behind A100

Behind A100 stands a team of elite athletes and professionals - organizers of international races, experts in logistics, risk management, and competing in extreme conditions.

Their experience makes possible what once seemed unthinkable - a triathlon competition on the coldest, harshest, most unforgiving continent on Earth.

Because Antarctica is the ultimate arena of human will -
where nature tests, and only the brave endure.

SCIENCE & RESEARCH

Exploring human limits through science

ANTARCTIC 100 is more than a race. It's a live experiment, a study of how the human body and mind adapt to extreme cold, isolation, stress, and peak physical load.

Where endurance meets science, every heartbeat becomes data.

The project brings together athletes and researchers to explore resilience, adaptation, and human potential in polar conditions.

Scientific teams are invited to join and study what happens when humans face the edge of possibility.

Specific research partnerships and studies information coming soon
