    Haven't heard about this one. As an aside, I don't suppose anyone else read the title with 2 S's and thought 'I could do that' ?

    I was immediately thinking Banoffi and Apple Crumble with custard and trying to come up with another two to round it out.

    I don't think so.

    As far as I know (I could be wrong of course) no Irish person has done the entire challenge so far.

    Martin Hennessy has done 3 of the races but not the the Antarctic one

    And I don't think the Antartic one is in the actual Antarctic either!

    According to the maps the route is on the Antarctic continent

    Of course it is. Islands hundreds of miles off the main Antartic land mass, but from a technical geopgraphic point of view classified as being Antartica. Not the main contintenal landmass though. That's a lot more difficult to organise.
