How cold is too cold for a jog?

For most people, below-freezing temperatures generally put a stop to outdoor exercise, but Siberian native Boris Fyodorov is not most people.

Minutes after the calendar ticked over to 2014 this past New Year’s Eve, Fyodorov set off on a solo, out-and-back marathon run from his home in the Siberian village of Oymyakon, completing the 26.2-mile course ― his first marathon ― in just over five hours. During the run he experienced temperatures as low as -36 F (-38 C).

And that was just the way he wanted it.

"I [heard] about other marathons around the globe, naming themselves 'the coldest', like the most recent North Pole marathon with runners going at -28 C [-18 F]," Fyodorov told the Siberian Times. "I thought surely this cannot be right. Our Oymyakon is the coldest inhabited place in northern hemisphere. Why don't we arrange a marathon here?"

Oymyakon is widely considered to be one of the coldest places on the planet, and its record-low temperature of -90 F, recorded in 1933, is tied for the coldest recorded temperature for any inhabited place on Earth. The average January temperature in the area is -50 C (-58 F).

Not only did Fyodorov finish the marathon in high spirits, but he also wants it to be colder the next time he tries it.

"I really want to organize [the] next Oymyakon marathon in January when the air goes down to -50 C or -60 C," he said.

Fyodorov is not the first person to take on a cold-weather athletic challenge like this. In addition to the North Pole Marathon that he mentioned, the Antarctica Marathon is held every year in late February, taking runners on an out-and-back tour from Russia’s Bellingshausen Station. A second Antarctica event ― the Ice Marathon ― has been held at 80 degrees south since 2006.

當氣溫降到零度以下，相信多數人會拒絕戶外活動，但土生土長的西伯利亞人鮑里斯?費奧多羅夫是個例外。他在新年夜零下38攝氏度的低溫中跑完了單人馬拉松。

據美國媒體報道，2014新年鐘聲敲響后不久，費奧多羅夫就從位于西伯利亞地區奧伊米亞康村的家中出發，在零下38攝氏度的低溫下跑完了大約42公里的往返馬拉松。這是他第一次跑馬拉松，5個多小時跑完全程。

費奧多羅夫說：“我聽說世界上有別的自稱‘最冷的’馬拉松，比如說，“北極馬拉松”選手最近就挑戰了零下28攝氏度的低溫。我覺得這肯定不對。我們奧伊米亞康是北半球有人居住的最冷的地方。為什么我們不能在這兒安排一場馬拉松呢？”

奧伊米亞康被廣泛認為是地球上最冷的地方之一，1933年創下的零下68攝氏度的低溫記錄，和地球上有人居住地方的低溫記錄持平。到了一月份，奧伊米亞康的平均氣溫為零下50攝氏度。

費奧多羅夫不僅精神飽滿地跑完了這趟馬拉松，而且希望下次跑的時候更冷。“我想在1月份溫度降到零下50或60攝氏度的時候組織一場奧伊米亞康馬拉松，”他說。

其實像費奧多羅夫這樣喜歡在嚴寒中長跑的人大有人在。除了上文提到的北極馬拉松以外，還有每年2月底的南極馬拉松，起點是俄羅斯的別林斯高晉南極考察站。另外，南極還有一項“冰上馬拉松”，提起來就叫人心“凍”。
