Lake Vostok is located at 77.5001° S, 106.0001° E, and the South Pole is located at 90 degrees S. This locates Lake Vostok about 862.5 miles from the South Pole.
The distance is also great when you measure the elevationof each.
The South Pole is measured at about 9,300 feet above sea level. The top of Lake Vostok is located at about -1,600 feet, which separates the two elevations by almost 10,000 feet.
