I just thought it was nice to see a positive message of the sexes coming together

Anyone who even attempts a marathon in the Antarctic is a badass by me!

there's a marathon in antarctica? why is this not televised? i would watch the shit out of that.

How is a marathon in Antarctic weather even possible?

EDIT: Well, I found this http://www.icemarathon.com/apply.php

Awesome they did this but sad that it takes women being interested for it to become news that prostate cancer kills. At least these two bucked the disposable male mentality in American culture.

Man, why didn't they just grow a moustache?

thumbs up to the two though

Love that tagline in one of the pics, "men wont talk about it, SHE will." lol, typical.

It's the girls fathers and its a great geature to honor him, it's only a shame most women probably wouldn't care unless it was a man in their life.

Good news is Good news. People like that need all the encouragement and support in the world.

this is really good to see, but its not true that men wont talk about it, what is true is that society at large ignores it and stifles it and men are taught to ignore their own health from childhood, men need a revolution that teaches them to care about themselves...my guess is that will never happen because it wont "directly" benefit tradionalist/feminist women or the government. long term it would though.

Im quite frankly moved. Ive honestly never seen -hell, never thought I would see- women care enough about a man to do something genuinely heroic for him - even if it is posthumously. Most women refuse to acknowledge a man's importance in their lives.
