BREAKING NEWS - Final race Report Sao Tomé
The final jump across the equator:
Slippery jungle trails, lush tropical plantations, rolling thunderstorms, relentless rain showers, sleepless nights—and powerful new bonds forged under pressure. This is what defined the 6th GlobalLimits São Tomé – The Hemisphere Crossing: a 6-day, 200km/130km endurance challenge across São Tomé island of São Tomé and Príncipe.
After six days of uncompromising terrain and raw determination, our runners reached an unforgettable finale on Rolas Island, crossing the Equator four times in the final 5km of their journey.
An extraordinary test of resilience, teamwork, and spirit—congratulations to every participant who pushed beyond limits and earned their place at the finish line.
