Oliver Haupt

Oliver is a 43-year-old anesthesiologist at a small hospital in Hamburg, Germany. He began his running career on 19.03.2012 with a 4.71km-run. His goal behind this new passion was to develop stronger endurance. Before running, Olivier’s passion was Filipino martial arts. As a trainer in martial arts for 15 years, Olivier still practices this passion today. Oliver ran his first marathon 30.06.2013 in 3:38. All of his consecutive marathons have been run on his own without an official running event. Oliver loves running alone and see the changes in nature throughout the year. The 2015 Polar Circle Marathon was his first "official" marathon. As he was running on the snow and ice of Greenland’s glacial nature, he first thought about the North Pole Marathon. Running on the icy nature of Greenland was so impressive he had to do it again, but this time at the North Pole – the ultimate icy nature.
