From China's Changcheng Research Station in the South Pole to Tuktoyaktuk, Canada in the North Pole, Guizhou runner Bai Bin took 433 days and ran 24,000 kilometers to complete this journey.

Born in Sinan county, Tongren, Southwest China's Guizhou province, Bai has been a running enthusiast since childhood.

In 2006, Bai took 50 days to run from Guiyang to Lhasa. In 2011, Bai took 150 days to run from Istanbul to Xi'an. His previous experience in grueling sports laid the foundation for him to push his limits.

In 2018, Bai and his friend Li Zhenyu planned the route for running from the South Pole to the North Pole. According to the plan, the route will be by way of 219 cities and towns in 14 countries.

His journey started on March 2, 2018. In addition to running, the extreme environment posed a major challenge for him. With the help of his team, local citizens, and overseas Chinese, Bai overcame massive difficulties and arrived in the North Pole on May 8.

However, Bai is continuing on to a new challenge. Next, he plans to cross the Bering Strait from the Arctic Ocean and run back to Xi'an, or climb Mount Qomolangma.
