Hege Victoria Dypdalsbakk may set a world record to the South Pole, but nothing is certain.

Hege Victoria Dypdalsbakk may set a world record as the fastest woman to the South Pole. But nothing is certain and she is now in a very demanding area where she must slow down, says Liv Arnesen.

Arne-Kristian Teigland fainted in the snow but woke up, called for help and is now undergoing a medical check-up, says Lars Ebbesen.

Karen Kyllesø is moving towards the South Pole and will be the youngest ever to reach the pole if she succeeds.
