An incredible woman: Preet Chandi Preet Chandi has become the first woman of colour to complete an Antarctic journey and reach the South Pole … and she has done it alone. Imagine being Preet. You’ve grown up in the north of England, where there is very little snow. Still, you’ve made a decision to do this difficult and dangerous journey across Antarctic ice and snow, all alone. You’ve spent two years planning and preparing for it. You’ve travelled over a thousand kilometres in freezing temperatures, often as low as minus 50ºC. You’ve pulled a ninety-kilogram sled behind you. It has taken you forty days. At times, you’ve wanted to give up, but you’ve carried on. At the age of thirty-two, that is exactly what Preet Chandi did. In Antarctica, at some times of the year the sun shines for twenty hours a day, but when Preet was there, it was shining for twenty-four hours every day, so it was never easy for her to sleep. Close to the end of the journey – also called a trek – Preet felt very tired. She was also sick and had a cough. It is amazing that she kept going! But Preet wanted to be a role model for her eight-year-old niece. She wants to be a role model to other young people and women, too. For Preet, it is true that nothing is impossible. Her next goal is to cross the Antarctic. But she wants to do it from coast to coast this time. If she completes that trek, she will be the first woman ever to do it. How exciting!
