Beyond the Ultimate’s media guy, Will (aka @baldlygo), recently completed the Ice Ultra in Swedish Lapland.

After making his way through 230km of Europe’s last remaining wilderness we thought it might be a good idea to have him tell you about what he learnt on the other side of the arctic circle.  This series is ideal for anybody who has booked onto an Ice Ultra event or is wondering what goes into running one.

Here is part one of Will’s Top Ten Tips for surviving on the Ice.  Here he discusses arctic admin, essential kit and Ice Ultra cuisine.
