I’m in Toronto trying to raise the final funding to get to the start line for a solo, unsupported ski to the North Pole.
It’s not easy asking, but this journey matters. Any support or shares mean a lot.

- Day 57.I made it to the #SouthPole,an incredible place to be!Didn’t stay long as I still have a big journey to go.I've been skiing 13-15 hours a day,averaging 5 hours sleep & not getting the mileage I want with the tough conditions: bit.ly/3QpGr2R #antarctica #inspire
- Phase 2 - Final. "I’m also proud of myself, I kept going when it was tough, when I thought I couldn’t do anymore. I wanted to continue to push my boundaries and hopefully inspire others to do the same" - bit.ly/3wu8Lbp #breakingboundaries #polarpreet #nothingisimpossible
- I had the idea for this expedition 2.5 years ago and now I'm on my way to Antarctica. I'm so excited to start this journey and overwhelmed by all of the support. Wish me luck! @BritishArmy @TeamArmyUK @mitie @Fujitsu_Defence @DellTech @ThisIsBFBS @Qioptiq @UltraElec_Group
- Polar Preet has started her expedition in #Antarctica. She will be doing daily blogs while she is on the ice. You can see her live location and listen to her audio updates on polarpreet.com #breakingboundaries #inspire #expedition #nothingisimpossible #explore
- Preet has made it to the half way point! She has 300 nautical miles to go until she reaches the south pole. #polarpreet #thisgirlcan #expedition @TeamArmyUK @mitie @BritishArmy @ThisIsBFBS
- This is a pretty cool ticket 🇦🇶 Aiming to fly to #Antarctica today. I’ll be flying into Union Glacier where I will collect my fuel, complete final comms checks before heading on a 30 min flight to my start point (Hercules Inlet) #expedition #polarpreet #nothingisimpossible
- So.. I did it again.. just a little faster. I completed a solo unsupported expedition from Hercules Inlet to the South Pole with a very specific goal in mind-the female speed record. The 1130km expedition, lasted 31 days, 13 hours and 19 minutes. Full blog:bit.ly/3TK9xhd
00:00 - Phase 2 – day 42.Merry Christmas from #Antarctica! This is my second Christmas in a row alone in my tent on the ice. I'm making my way through the sastrugi and getting closer to the pole #breakingboundaries #inspire #expedition #polarpreet #nothingisimpossible #explore
- I’m aiming to reach the North Pole. It’s an incredibly tough challenge, with a slim chance of success, but I believe it’s worth pursuing. If I succeed, I’ll become the first woman to travel solo to both the North and South Pole. polarpreet.com
- Phase 2 – day 51.I've made it to the last degree-just under 60 nautical miles from the South Pole. A lot of soft snow, a whiteout and wind but I made it through. This post goes out to those training for their expeditions: bit.ly/3GdTboP #expedition #antarctica #inspire

- Phase 2 – day 35. Hi everyone. Still making my way through the soft snow. I’m eating a lot but I have definitely lost weight which was expected..continue reading:bit.ly/3YAZLOC #antarctica #breakingboundaries #inspire #expedition #polarpreet #nothingisimpossible #explore
