Last year Harpreet Chandi, became the first woman of colour to complete a solo unsupported trek to the South Pole.
British-born Indian woman Harpreet Chandi, who became the first woman of colour to complete a solo unsupported trek to the South Pole last year, has accomplished another feat this year. The British Army officer, also known as Polar Preet, has broken the record for the longest solo, unsupported, and unassisted polar expedition by any woman in history. The record is to be confirmed by Guinness World Records (GWR).
Team Forces/Team Army, a charity organisation in the UK which raises funds for sports and adventure in the armed forces community, announced Chandi’s achievement in a Facebook post. “We’ve just heard that @PreetChandi10 has officially broken the record for the longest solo, unsupported, and unassisted polar expedition by any woman in history! The previous female record was 1,368 km skied by Anja Blacha from Germany in 2019. @KensingtonRoyal,” read the Facebook post.
She added, “I listened to childhood memories from my brothers, my mum telling me how excited she was about having a baby girl and how the midwife commented that she had never seen an Asian woman so excited about having a girl.”
