The Inspire 22 team broke a few records:
- Officially the largest expedition to ski to the South Pole

Lots to celebrate!

The @Go_Inspire_22 expedition team have arrived home to the UK! ❄️🇬🇧
Skiing over 900km to the south pole, they explored wearable tech to increase our understanding of human metabolism in the austere environment.
BFBS had the honour to support the journey 💪
The only member of the regular cadre who couldn’t make it, had a terrible excuse-something to do with yomping to the South Pole.
Royal Navy Boneologists: a life less ordinary.
Great to attend the @Go_Inspire_22 homecoming event this week.
Congratulations to the team for completing their 47 day Antarctica expedition, the largest medical research study of its kind. Hear more about their experiences on @BFBSRadioHQ
A team of tri-service military personnel and civilians is back in the UK after finishing their medical research challenge.❄️
@Go_Inspire_22 skied more than 900km to the South Pole to find out how much energy the body uses during sustained polar travel.
