BEYOND THE ULTIMATE GLOBAL RACE SERIES

We're proud to be title sponsors of one of the globe's toughest ultramarathon race events.
1/4

Four Frontiers

Four races. Four of the most hostile environments on earth. Beyond the Ultimate's Global Race Series is a self-sufficient, multi-day ultramarathon series that crosses Swedish Lapland inside the Arctic Circle, runs deep into the Amazon Rainforest, traverses the Namib, the world's oldest desert, and climbs the Tian Shan mountains in Kyrgyzstan, one of the planet's largest and least explored ranges. Athletes carry everything they need to survive. No support crews. No resupply. Expedition-style racing at its most uncompromising. Widely regarded as the toughest ultramarathon series in the world, and the results of every edition justify that claim.

ThruDark x Beyond the Ultimate

We build clothing and equipment to perform in real conditions. The Global Race Series puts it through four of them, in sequence. Sub-zero cold and frostbite risk in the Swedish Arctic. Sustained heat and equatorial humidity in the Amazon. Unrelenting UV exposure and extreme dehydration risk crossing the Namib. High-altitude exposure and unpredictable mountain weather in the Tian Shan. Each environment tests different demands: cold weather insulation, hot climate breathability, UV protection, durability under multi-day, high-output movement. Every athlete who reaches the finish line carries a story of a deliberate decision to face something genuinely hard. This is what it means to "Endeavour Through Adversity".

MOUNTAIN ULTRA

The Mountain Ultra covers the shortest distance in the series. It is the most technically demanding. The Tian Shan stretches 2,500km, home to some of the largest glaciers outside the polar regions. 10,500m of total ascent over 200km. Entry requires either a prior Global Race Series finish or completion of the full-distance Montane Spine Race — there is no easier route in. Shop the kit list.

JUNGLE ULTRA

Manu National Park is among the most biodiverse and least-accessible places on earth. The Jungle Ultra descends from the Andes cloud forest into the Amazon basin — past river crossing after river crossing, through deep mud, suffocating undergrowth and humidity that saturates kit within minutes of the start gun. Altitude compounds the effort early; the heat compounds it late. Beyond the Ultimate calls this their hardest event. Shop the kit list.

DESERT ULTRA

The Namib is one of the oldest deserts on earth. It is also one of the most deceptive. At midday, temperatures reach 55°C in the direct sun. By the time the stars appear, the same terrain drops to near freezing. Runners navigate sand dunes, ancient rock canyons and scrubland, passing the Spitzkoppe Mountains before finishing at a rhino conservation outpost. The thermal range across a single race day is greater than most people experience in a full year. Runners' clothing must perform at both extremes, often within hours of each other. Shop the kit list.

ICE ULTRA

The Ice Ultra takes place in February, above the Arctic Circle, in temperatures that reach -40°C. Sixteen hours of darkness per day. Snowfields, Arctic tundra and frozen lakes underfoot. The 40-place capacity reflects the severity of what participants are asked to do. The 2027 edition is already sold out. Any kit failure at these temperatures is not an inconvenience — it is a genuine risk. Damian Hall, Team GB trail runner and UTMB top-20 finisher, won the 2018 edition. His assessment of the conditions: "You couldn't stop and admire it for long or you'd freeze to death." Shop the kit list.

"Every race in the Global Race Series is built around one idea, pushing through when it gets tough. That’s where real stories are made. ThruDark understands that better than most, which is why this partnership is incredibly exciting. We’ve seen their kit tested across our series, from jungles to deserts, and it’s never faltered.”

Kris King, Beyond the Ultimate Race Director
