Dean Karnazes and Paul Liebenberg become the first two people to ever complete all 4 Deserts in one year. The Last Desert (Antarctica) was cut short this week due to weather. They were able to complete 4 of the 6 stages and then race officials had to cancel the rest. Liebenberg was in the lead after Stage 4 and was declared the winner. Karnazes wins the overall series. I believe the winner is determined based on average finishing position in each race. Karnazes won the Atacama Crossing (Chile), came in fourth in the Gobi March (China), finished second in the Sahara Race and came in fifth in the Last Desert. www.4deserts.com/thelastdesert/index.php
