<p><span style="color: #000000;">Hi all </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">The trek now completed it was an amazing experience but yet a tough one indeed walking in the sand is twice as hard as walking normally but with a great group of people to keep moral high we battled on through the tiredness and pains thinking of our charities. We saw some awesome scenery was truly special just us and the desert :) . </span></p>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">Just some info all you guys should know ....
<p>Prostate cancer has overtaken lung cancer to become the most common cancer in men.</p>
<p>Each year in the UK, around <strong>36,000</strong>* men are diagnosed with prostate cancer. About <strong>10,000</strong> men die from prostate cancer every year in the UK. This works out as <strong>more than one man every hour.<br /></strong>The majority of men with prostate cancer are aged over 60 years. Although this cancer can also occur in younger individuals, it is very rare under the age of 50.<br /><br /></p>
