For Barber, the key to victory was the mental preparation required for such a test of will.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOnce you leave Whitehorse on the race course, you move further and further from any access points and often the race competitors get so spread out that you can go for six to eight hours without seeing another person,\u201d says Barber. \u201cThe fatigue and the isolation combined with the potential extreme conditions and knowing it can take over 12 hours for a rescue to happen can play tricks on your mind and make a minor situation seem more extreme than it really is.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The marathon features a number of different distances, including 300 miles and 430 miles. Competitors can travel on foot, by bike, or using XC-skis, but Barber travelled on foot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBecause of its difficulty level, it\u2019s typically a race that people sign up \u2018just to try to finish\u2019 and not a race that you are trying to compete to win,\u201d explains Barber.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He says he had no strategy to try and win the race. The competition was secondary to his ability to push himself to the limits of his capability.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI knew what place I was in the whole time because I started the race in the lead group. Most of them pushed further ahead so I couldn\u2019t see them anymore and did not know how far behind I was,\u201d he says. \u201cLuckily, with my race strategy, I slowly caught up and then I knew I was in second place because I only had one set of footprints to follow in the snow.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He caught up with the leader roughly 52 km into the race but wasn\u2019t able to pass for another 65 km.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith about 40 km remaining, I passed him on the trail and that was the last time I would see him or anybody else on the trail until the finish line. I ended up outpacing him and winning by over 2 hours,\u201d says Barber.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing which separates the Yukon Ultra from other races is that participants must be entirely self-supported.&nbsp; As the course is so remote and isolated, the rules require athletes to take significant amounts of gear so they have the ability to look after themselves in extreme weather conditions or emergency situations. For Barber, that included a tent, sleeping bag rated to -45C, sleeping pad, expedition coat, and mitts, a stove, and fuel, as well as food and a minimum of three liters of water in double-walled thermos to prevent the water from freezing. Athletes carried those items in a pulk (sleigh) attached to a harness.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTo train for this race, I began with general fitness training (running and weight training) until the end of November, then I started to incorporate tire dragging sessions usually on hills in the area. By Christmas, when we had enough snow, I would switch my training to exclusively hiking our local trails while pulling a sleigh that I added about 85 lbs to,\u201d he says. \u201cDuring the sessions, I would figure out which clothing layers worked for different temperatures, and which food items I could eat quickly but also be able to eat when the item is frozen since all our food would freeze during the race. I would also practice stopping and setting up my sleep system or my stove as quickly as possible to make sure I could do this efficiently in an urgent situation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Barber is no stranger to cold temperatures, having grown up in Timmins before moving to Bracebridge with his wife in 2010. He says part of the appeal of moving to Muskoka was the abundance of outdoor activities available.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Barber says he started with short runs and triathlons shortly after moving to the area but he found endurance races were his true calling.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe appeal is to push myself and try to find my limits. I think you grow as a person and discover more about yourself when you really challenge yourself, whether you succeed or fail,\u201d he says. \u201cIt\u2019s not about choosing only events I know I can finish, it\u2019s about choosing events that make me wonder if it\u2019s possible.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Barber says he\u2019s grateful for the support he\u2019s received from friends and family, but especially from his wife and three children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy wife is the one who pushed me to sign up for this race and knew I could finish it,\u201d he says.&nbsp;\u201cShowing my kids that you can set your goals high, but you must work hard to achieve them is very important. After every race I\u2019ve ever done the first thing my kids ask me is \u2018did you win?\u2019 and now I can finally tell them yes, I did.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure
