Future Plans
Ben aims to repeat his North Pole speed record attempt in March 2010, followed by The Scott Antarctic Expedition 2011-12, the first return journey to the South Pole on foot. At 1,800 miles (2,900 km) and nearly four months, it will be the longest unsupported (i.e. human-powered, with no air-drops, vehicles or kites) polar expedition in history.

Famous quotes containing the words future and/or plans:
“If ever the search for a tranquil belief should end,
The future might stop emerging out of the past,
Out of what is full of us; yet the search
And the future emerging out of us seem to be one.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“When I heard at the close of the day how my name had been receiv’d
with plaudits in the capitol, still it was not a happy night for me
that follow’d,
And else when I carous’d, or when my plans were accomplish’d,
still I was not happy,
But the day when I rose at dawn from the bed of perfect health,
refresh’d, singing, inhaling the ripe breath of autumn,”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
