Dixie & Sam (2 Belgians!) have re-written a piece of Antarctic history.
As of today, Day 70 of the Antarctic ICE Expedition, Dixie Dansercoer & Sam Deltour have broken the previous world record for unsupported and non-motorized distance travelled in Antarctica.
The previous record was held by Norwegian polar explorer Rune Gjeldnes, who in February 2006 completed 4804 km in 90 days.
Dixie and Sam have achieved 4829,4 km in 70 days … and they are still going strong!
Today is a day to celebrate a new world record … congratulations not only to Dixie & Sam, but to the entire Antarctic ICE Expedition Team and YOU for all of your support.
