NORWAY-SCOTT-AMUNDSEN-RACE
Race Organiser Tony Martin speaks during the Amundsen South Pole Race press launch in Oslo 18 January 2008. Roald Amundsen (1872–1928) was a Norwegian explorer of polar regions. He led the first Antarctic expedition to the South Pole between 1910 and 1912. Robert Falcon Scott, (1868–1912) was a British Royal Navy officer and Antarctic explorer. In the so-called "Race to the South Pole" Scott was second, behind the winning Amundsen; he and his four companions died whilst trying to return to their base. In December 2008, almost 100 years after Scott and Amundsen, teams from Norway, Italy and the UK will set off to race 400 nautical miles across Antarctica to the Geographic South Pole.
