Seven Continents Club - Ask Run Guy

Seven Continents Clubs

A popular goal of some very dedicated travelling marathon or half marathon runners is to complete a race on each continent.

The most common count of recognized separate continents is seven, though there recently is some discussion of recognizing eight continent*.

The common list of seven continents is: Africa, Asia, Europe, South America, North America, Australia (Oceania), Antarctica.

*Recently an eighth continent Zealandia has been added as an option for completing running on all continents.

Seven Continents Travel

Below are links to businesses who specialize in leading trips to run races on each continent.  These groups have many trips and many years of experience in the races on each continent, as well as many other destination marathons. The groups can help guarantee a bib entry for the race, and can provide hotel arrangements and some meals and tour guide services around the area of the race.

There are different specifications regarding what constitutes a race, the awards provided, travel logistics, cost, etc. so it is good to review both of these clubs if pursuing this goal.
