Will the Scott Team Make it ?

Published on 17.01.2012 - The Scott Amundsen Centenary Race

The Scott Team of the Scott Amundsen Centenary Race wants to arrive to the SP on the 17 January to celebrate the Scott's anniversary who reached the SP on 17 January 1912. They are 22 miles away from it...

Here is what the HQ wrote yesterday in their daily update : "... It’s Day 75 and all fingers and toes are crossed in anticipation of today’s daily distance. Did they manage the 20.2 nautical miles needed to keep them on track to reach the pole tomorrow night? Not quite, but not far off! As Kev Johnson reports, the guys end the day on 19.7 nautical miles, just half a mile off target, leaving them with just 22.2 left to go"

"A mammoth task awaits them, for what they hope will be their last day, but as we’ve seen so far, the guys can rise to any challenge. It all comes down to one day and three men at the mercy of Mother Nature. Will she be kind and give them a clear run to the Pole? Fingers crossed everyone."

Amundsen Team is awaiting them.
