Because 98% of the continent is covered with an ice sheet, Antarctica's not known for its rivers. All rivers on the continent are seasonal, melt-water rivers. All are closed-basin rivers that do not empty into the sea.
This means that some of the wide glaciers produce melt-water, but not in quantities that would qualify as rivers.
Melt-water rivers that a human could wade across are about as wide as the human could toss a stone across.
