Story
UPDATE -
It's vital we keep the momentum of our message going. To do this, we have to keep grabbing people's attention, just like Antarctica. This year, we're attempting The Great World Race, 7 marathons on 7 continents in 7 consecutive days, and to make it just a little harder and make sure we really do grab people's attention, we're doing it in fire kit and a breathing apparatus set.
For every girl and young woman who's ever been told they can't participate because of their gender... We want to inspire them to find their courage, change the narrative of what it means to be a girl, and achieve great things far beyond what their own as well as others expectations.
We started as amateurs, trained for nearly 4 years, learnt to ski, survive and pull everything we need to stay alive in that time. Now, we are polar explorers, embarking on a journey that proves you're not too young or old to try new and exciting things.
We skied 1,230km from Union Glacier to the South Pole from November 2023 and finishing in January 2024. The journey was unassisted and unsupported, pulling 120kg for 52 days, 10 hours and 30 mins.
