If successful without
re-supplies on his tour, it will be a world distance record, approximately 800
km longer than the previous skiing expedition record.

On Day 4 (06.11.2005) Rune
finally started The Longest March as his expedition is called. The area is steep, and
headwind preventing him of using the kites. Rune managed to cover a distance of
5 km, and is very pleased that he at last could start the expedition.

Ocean and Antarctica, he will set another world record. And this will also make
him as one of the greatest living adventurers in our time.
