    Leaving Punta Arenas Chile for Union Glacier Research Camp in the Arctic Circle to run a marathon. Current temperatures are -19* F and with windchill it’s -37*.

    Trying to complete my 7 continents goal. Sure is going to be a cold one!

    Be sure to get 1st place!

    Awesome! FYI...If you see a polar bear you only have to run faster than one other guy.
