Heading North

It's all go. I'm heading back to the North Pole in a matter of days (I leave the UK this weekend) and I'm planning to go solo and unsupported from Canada to the North Geographic Pole, with the aim of setting a speed record along the way. The current record of 36 days and 22 hours was set by a team using dogsleds and multiple resupply flights in 2005; I'll be alone and on foot.

There's a brand-spanking new website on the way, thanks to the brilliant people at Erskine Design - the site goes live on Monday (right here at BenSaunders.com - do not adjust your set) and I'll write more then…
