Competitors must run the standard 42.2 km marathon distance in Antarctica, Africa, Australia, Asia, Europe, South America and North America within 168 hours, or seven days. The clock starts ... when the first marathon begins in Antarctica. The World Marathon Challenge is the only annual event that offers the opportunity to run 7 marathons on 7 continents in 7 days. The first marathon occurs within the Antarctic Circle on mainland Antarctica and the final marathon takes place in Miami, North America. The global route is Novo (Antarctica), Cape Town (Africa), Perth (Australia), Dubai (Asia),Madrid (Europe),Santiago (South America) and Miami (North America) After the initial marathon in Antarctica, competitors fly by charter plane to every marathon location around the globe.
