100 km race
Nine competitors from four nations started in the Antarctic 100k. Irishman Richard Donovan took an early lead and pressed hard over the first 25 km. Marathon winner Henri Alain D'Andria followed close behind. Over the next kilometres until the halfway point, the gap between the two widened to 40 minutes and then to an hour at the 75km point. The Irishman eased up over the final 25km to win the race in a new Antarctic 100k record of 12:55.06. Philippe Moreau and Hervé Taquet shared the third position again, just like they did in the marathon.
