Ice Ultra | The Documentary - Behind the scenes of Beyond the Ultimate's Ice Ultra race

- In February 2018, a group of runners took on the Ice Ultra, a yearly, 230km, 5-day race inside the Arctic circle.
For the first time in the race's history, Beyond the Ultimate let a film crew behind the scenes. The resulting film focuses on the beauty and isolation the runners experience during their journey across Arctic Sweden, rather than the obvious hardship of racing in this uniquely challenging environment.
The Ice Ultra takes place in Swedish Lapland. It’s Europe’s last remaining wilderness and the heartland of the indigenous Sámi people. This area, Jokkmokk municipality, an area the size of Wales but with a population of only around three thousand, can experience daytime temperatures as low as -40°c and the days are short.
Ice Ultra follows the runners and race team as the adventure makes its way across a freezing, windswept landscape. The days are short and the course is long; runners spend long hours running in darkness, following the marked route by head torch, under skies free of light pollution and filled with stars and sightings of Aurora.
White-capped mountains dominate the horizon. All around is silent and peaceful, broken only by the crunch of footsteps in the snow as runners make their way through this UNESCO world heritage area.

Thanks for Joining us for the Live Premier everyone. Was great to speak to everyone and re live the adventure!
Awesome work you guys! Goosebumps. I'm going for the year 2022 when i turn 40, my birthday is in the week of the race. :D
We will see you there and thanks for joining us on the live premier!
One of the things I love about running is seeing older runners kick ass over younger ones, makes me feel less annoyed about turning 27
@@casy6203 Dude, you're young, but can still kick some ass 😉
Did you do it?
Wow, you guys have some of the best running films I've seen in a while!
Thankyou!
I've just stumbled across this tonight. Wowsers, what a brilliant short film. Loved it.
The advice and details are priceless to get an idea of what the race involves. Makes one want to go at it now that one more clearly sees what it consists of !
Wow, this race is definitely going on our adventure bucket list now! 😍😍
Proud of you Jeff... Malaysia🇲🇾
one of my dream ultras to do
Amazing work guys. Ryan...hero! Kris King and your team...BE EXTREMELY PROUD. Im thinking 2019...
get your self on lad!
3:52 I see you got Apple Vision Pro there.
With all the respect and all that, just, it feels much more natural to ski instead.
Yeah you would think that, but that would be the easy way. We like our runners to see things at a slightly slower/tougher pace!
That would be a different event though wouldn’t it 🙄
wanna do this someday!!!
These films are incredible. Keep em coming!
Thanks Victor!
Anyone have a ballpark on how much this kind of thing costs? Willing to pack Ramen.
