A military 'dream team' has taken their training to Sweden ahead of one of the toughest races in the world, a 10-day 500-kilometre ultramarathon in the Arctic Circle.

In association with SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity, military legends, adventurers and TV personalities, Jason 'Foxy' Fox, Aldo Kane, Military Cross holder Brian Wood and Karl Hinett launched their campaign last year and have been getting to grips with skills and drills.

The epic Arctic adventure aims to shine a spotlight on mental health in the military.
