Disabled Former GB Para-athlete Embarks on Historic Solo South Pole Ski Expedition

Jonny Huntington aims to be the first disabled person to complete a solo, unsupported ski journey to the South Pole over 40 days.

Jonny Huntington, a 38-year-old from Kingsbridge, Devon, suffered a stroke in 2014, resulting in left-side paralysis.
After a decade of rehabilitation, he is attempting to ski 566 miles across the Antarctic tundra without support or resupply.
Huntington's journey began from Fuchs-Messner on the Antarctic landmass, pulling a 110kg sled with all his supplies.
He has prepared extensively, including a 20-day solo expedition in Sweden and running the South West Coast Path.
This expedition represents a significant personal challenge and aims to break new ground for disabled explorers.
