[pct-l] another long walk
Hi Brick and others,
I got up really early this morning, so decided to read the adventures of Pen
Hadow.
What a remarkable read, it makes the PCT seem very tame.
Thanks for putting up the url.

Not really PCT, but certainly a long walk.

From Canada to the North Geographic Pole
British polar guide Pen Hadow (41) of The Polar Travel Company made history
today, Monday 19th May 2003, by reaching the North Geographic Pole from
Canada. On Sunday, Pen completed a staggering 17 nautical miles in 15 hours
and with only one hours rest he began walking the last phase of 4 nautical
miles. At 10:11hrs GMT, Pen reached his long awaited goal.
