So stage 3 was rough, we had to do 9hrs up and down a snowy hill.

My ankle is better but I only got in 20 loops, conditions were very sunny.

Todays stage should have been started at 6 but was delayed due to winds,

We might start at 7 and face another 9 to 10 hours today, tomorrows weather will likely be very bad so this can be the last stage but for sure a tough one.

Hi all,

Hi All,

Thanks for the comments and messages!

Today was a rough day even though we only did a half one.

We started on an island full of penguins but had to do a 2km circuit.

I only did 8km which tells you enough about my ankle and the track conditions.

Since I was at the back of the field all today I felt the need to prove myself so

I did the polar plunge and went into the freezing water after the stage, as well

Hi all,

Hello together,

Hello together,

I arrived safely and with all my gear in Ushuaia, travel was really smooth.

Today I visited the national park Terra del Fuego, really great landscape!

Tomorrow the journey continues with crossing Drake' s passage, the roughest crossing in the world. Seasickness incoming...

I keep you posted from the ship.

Hello together,

tomorrow the journey starts, today is all about packing and buying the rest of the snacks for the ship.

Tomorrow then 13hr flight from Frankfurt to Buenos Aires, changing airports and fly another 5 hours to get to the end of the world in Ushuaia.

On 23.11 the expedition ship leaves the Ushuaia and the first stage is scheduled for 26.11.

I will be blogging throughout the journey on the ship as well as after the stages, but new posts may be delayed as they are depending on the satellite connection.

Appreciate your comments or private messages!
