Western Sahara was invaded by the Moroccan regime and occupied. The people of this country, the Saharawi, are cheerful, sassy nomads. They have suffered terrible brutality and are currently awaiting a long-promised UN referendum. 

Meanwhile..FORTY YEARS LATER hundreds of thousands of Saharawi are still waiting and living in refugee camps in the desert. 

The Saharawi people have built a stunning self-governed socialist state in the camps. 

The Sahara Marathon passes between the camps in Southern Algeria. We are raising money for Sandblast UK,

So we are running (or probably crawling) to raise funds for Sandblast and are paying all our own expenses.
