As I’ve written before, we did not have permission to run a “race” or to organize an “event” on King George Island, Antarctica. These words, in addition to the word “marathon” are politically charged and send up red flags to the countries that govern the last continent. But an “experience” is fair game, right?
Results of the ANTARCTIC 24-HOUR EXPERIENCE:
Within 24 hours on King George Island, the following distances were completed:
Alex Glazer, 4 miles (approx)
Kara Buckner, 4 miles (approx)
Yuri Laskin, 4 miles (approx)
Marina White, 26.2 miles
Bill Pech, 28 miles
Cami Ostman, 28 miles
We’d like to send our a special shout-out and thanks to our amazing, wonderful, kind guide and witness, Alejo Contreras Staeding. Thanks Alejo! You’re the best.
