With their joint love for the great outdoors, the Princess of Wales and Captain “Polar” Preet Chandi had plenty to talk about last week.
Kate visited Landau Forte College, in Preet’s home city of Derby, to meet the record-breaker following her expedition across Antarctica, when she broke the record for the furthest unsupported solo polar trek. She covered 922 miles in 70 days and 16 hours, skiing for 13-15 hours a day.
