<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>In April this year I will be taking part in what is widely considered to be the <strong>World's toughest footrace - the Marathon des Sables</strong>. The event takes part in the World's largest desert - The Sahara and covers a distance of 152 miles over 6 stages. the terrain is mainly sand dunes and rock strewn salt flats with temperatures over 120 F. Competitors carry everything they need for the week including all food - the only real support is rationed water.</p> <p>As an extreme ironer, I shall be the first person (and I'm sure the last) to take on this challenge while carrying a full sized ironing board and iron......</p> <p>For my efforts and to support this fantastic charity and the priceless work that they do, please donate what you can - it will be very much appreciated by the charity and myself, thanks&nbsp; Paul</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
