Ben Saunders is the third in history to ski solo to the North Pole and holds the record for the longest solo Arctic journey by a Briton.

In October 2012 he leads a three-man team setting out to make the first return journey to the South Pole on foot. At 1,800 miles and four months, Scott 2012 will be the longest unsupported polar journey in history and the first completion of Captain Scott's ill-fated Terra Nova expedition.

Ben is blogging the build-up to the Scott 2012 Expedition and you can follow him on Tumblr and Twitter.

Ben is a Brand Ambassador for Land Rover and an acclaimed motivational speaker, described by TED as "A master storyteller". He is represented internationally as a speaker by IMG and The London Speaker Bureau. For more information on booking Ben as a speaker
