That's impressive

Bacon, butter fuel fastest South Pole trek: Adventurers set new record by completing 700-mile expedition in 33 days

The three Canadians broke a record set by an American just last month. One of the explorers said that he really, really wants some pizza. He had previously done a run across 4,300 miles of the Sahara. They didn't use dogs, apparently, but pulled 170-pound sleds with one man going along on snowshoes as the other two skied, sometimes through whiteouts and temps as low as -40 degrees Fahrenheit.

Congratulations, I believe, are in order.
