Simon Wrenn

Simon maintains he has been running marathons, very badly, for the last 15 years. He has recorded appallingly slow race times at many marathons around the world. His list of race finishes includes the Volcano Marathon in the Atacama desert, the 100km Antarctic Marathon, the Marathon De Sables held in the Sahara Desert and the Eilat Marathon held in Negev desert in Israel. This will be Simon's third time on the start line of North Pole Marathon, following visits in both 2008 and 2009. In a dramatic break with tradition, Simon is intending to actually finish the race this year.
