THE GREAT WORLD RACE™ 2026
Seven Marathons • Seven Continents • Seven Days
A Global Challenge Led
by Guinness World Record Holder Robert Norris
In November 2026, Robert Norris — Guinness World Record–holding Ironman athlete — will take on one of the most demanding endurance challenges on Earth: seven full marathons, on seven continents, in seven consecutive days. This expedition‑class mission is designed to showcase discipline, preparation, and human potential on a global stage.
The Great World Race™ is more than a test of endurance. It is a platform for global storytelling, brand partnership, and impact‑driven fundraising that supports Robert’s journey and the elite expedition team behind him.
a Global Expedition
