Felicity Aston - The Historic 59-Day Solo Voyage Across Antarctica
In this episode, Jen and Dyana talk with Felicity Aston, a British Polar Explorer, Author, Climate Scientist, and Speaker. In 2012, she achieved the remarkable feat of being the first woman to ski solo across Antarctica, covering a distance of 1,084 miles. The expedition spanned 59 days, culminating in her securing a well-deserved place in the Guinness Book of World Records. Felicity's accomplishment stands as a significant milestone in Antarctic exploration. It's safe to say she is much cooler than Jen and Dyana.
