Join us in cheering on ultramarathon runner Donna Urquhart as she approaches the historic achievement of completing the Run Antarctica Guinness World Record™. This groundbreaking attempt marks the endeavour to conquer the longest ultramarathon in a polar region in history, and TITAN Containers is honoured to be a major contributor to this extraordinary journey by serving as Run Antarctica's main partner.
Donna Urquhart embarked on her awe-inspiring 1,300km run on December 14th at Union Glacier Camp in Antarctica, marking a significant milestone in the world of endurance sports. As Donna surpasses the halfway point, we invite you to join us in rallying behind her and providing the encouragement she needs to conquer the challenges that lie ahead. Stay informed by watching her latest interview with ABC, where she shares insights into the difficulties faced during this unparalleled journey.
Antarctica, renowned for its extreme conditions, poses formidable challenges, with temperatures ranging between minus 5 and minus 10 degrees Celsius and the potential to plummet below minus 20. To prepare for these harsh conditions, Donna turned to TITAN Containers and our ArcticStore range of portable cold-store containers, capable of cooling to an impressive minus 40 degrees Celsius. We proudly provided Donna with a container for her 4,600km of training throughout 2023, ensuring she had the optimal environment for her preparation.

While our market-leading ArcticStore range is typically associated with frozen food, vaccines, and cold-testing engineering components, our team in Melbourne, Australia is delighted to have supported Donna every step of the way. We take pride in being a significant part of Donna's historic journey, showcasing the versatility of our products in extreme conditions.
In addition to our support for Donna's physical and logistical needs, we are equally excited to contribute to the charitable aspect of this endeavour. All charity donations raised throughout the run will be dedicated to supporting organizations focused on keeping girls active, with a strong emphasis on mental fitness. TITAN Containers is committed to making a positive impact, aligning with the broader goal of empowering females in sports.
We encourage everyone to join us in supporting Donna Urquhart and the Run Antarctica team by following her journey on social media platforms, the live tracker, and newsletters. Your encouragement and engagement can make a significant difference in the success of this Guinness World Record™ attempt.
