The athlete

01 / THE STORY

One decision.
A different future.

“I want young Lebanese people to see what starts with a decision to change.”

I’m Ibrahim Azzam, a 21-year-old Lebanese software engineer and endurance athlete. I have been accepted into Antarctic 100.

Five months ago, I quit smoking. Since then, I have completed six official races across aquathlon, duathlon, triathlon and running. Training became a commitment to a different way of living.

Now, my ambition is to bring Lebanon’s flag to the inaugural A100 start line and work toward a finish our community would celebrate with pride.

I want this journey to encourage people my age to take their health seriously, become active and pursue goals they once felt were out of reach.

100 km / Three disciplines / One goal

A place in the first edition is a rare opportunity.

Organizers present A100 as the first triathlon in Antarctica, limited to 50 athletes worldwide. It combines an endurance race with a polar expedition, requiring specialist equipment, preparation and medical clearance.

Cold, isolation and demanding logistics make reaching this start line a substantial undertaking. The project also invites scientific interest in human adaptation to polar conditions.

For Lebanon, participation offers a place in this inaugural international field. For a partner, it offers a meaningful role in helping a Lebanese athlete get there.
