South Pole Adventurer

If you've been out in the forest of Dean lately, you may have seen a woman dragging a large 4X4 tyre behind her.

Wendy Searle from Monmouth, uses the Forest of Dean as her training ground as she is setting out on a journey to the South Pole that will cover over 700 miles of ice and snow, and she's doing it alone.

The tyre is a training aid to act like a sledge.
