Congratulations to Tee Morgan who has become the first Nigerian to participate in one of the world’s most grueling sporting challenges, the North Pole Marathon and not only participating but finishing the marathon.
The Nigerian who proudly waved her flag at the end of the race was among the 45 competitors who entered the event on April 9th, with participants from different countries and races.
The race is run on small, 2.62-mile loop about 10 times over hard snow or the frozen ice of the Arctic Ocean.
Snipers were placed around the running circuit to protect the athletes from polar bears or other dangerous animals.
