"Our Arctic Challenge" the movie


Many of you adventure racers have heard about the Siku Arctic Challenge 5 day adventure race in Greenland. Myself and my teammates of Feed the Machine have had the opportunity to race there and I must say it is the most amazing race and the most extraordinary place that I've ever seen. I highly encourage any of you racers who are seeking a true challenge in a truly magnificent atmosphere to participate in that race. ...........HOWEVER.....do so quickly before the glaciers melt!!!

The folks who film the race every year have put together a movie that will show at the Newport Beach Film Festival on April 30 at 6:15pm. They use the backdrop of the adventure race as a venue to film their movie about global warming. They speak with the racers and the race organizers as well.

The filmmakers are from Denmark and are unable to attend this show so I will be representing them here in Newport Beach. This is a great opportunity for me to discuss the effects of global warming that I have seen with my own eyes.

You can get to the movie website and the movie trailer here.

Check out "Our Arctic Challenge" at the Newport Beach Film Festival on Wednesday, April 30 at 6:15pm!
