The Race
The race is organised by Racing The Planet.
The challenge is quite a simple one really, a fun run you might say.
150 miles across the Sahara dessert in 6 days, starting on Sunday 25th September.
Day 1 - 20 miles OK so far
Day 2 - 20 miles starting to ache a little
Day 3 - 25 miles god it's hot here
Day 4 - 25 miles didn't I do this yesterday?
Day 5 - 50 miles you've got to be kidding me
Day 6 - 10 miles I think I can manage this
The race is unsupported which means that you have to carry everything you need for the 6 days, food, bedding, clothes equipment and water. You can fill up on water every 6 miles, I'll be carrying a pack weighing approximately 14 kilo.
On the Racing The Planet website it has a section entitled weather, under which is simply says, this is the hottest place on earth, nuff said.
