About Marathon Des Sables

The Marathon Des Sables (MdS) is known as the toughest footrace on Earth. The distance covered is 243km's in the Sahara desert, run in 49 degrees Celsius heat while every athlete carries his or her own equipment, food etc. weighing in at around 9-13kg's.

This blog is aimed at telling my story. I will record my preparation for the MdS 2013 in detail in the hope that it will help my fellow runners.

What an Amazing Privilege to be a 2013 Participant


My training is going very well, both speed and strength are improving and my running strategy seems to be paying dividends. I ran an average of 10.3km/h (5:49/km) today peaking at 17.1 km/h.

Thanks for visiting my blog.
