An intrepid group of South Africans recently jetted off to Sweden to take on the Ice Ultra , a five-day adventure on foot in the remote and hostile wilds of Lapland , above the Arctic Circle . With no experience of running in snow , it was always going to be huge challenge for the African runners , but running for a great cause and having each other for support got them to the finish line . – BY CORDI VAN NEKERK
Cordi van Niekerk very much out of his comfort zone in the Ice Ultra , but still embracing every minute of the experience !
