Hi friends

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am running the Marathon des Sables in April 2013 for Lindsey Lodge care hospice.

The Marathon Des Sables is a 150mile run accross the Sahara Desert over sand dunes and mountains. It is a self sufficiency race over 7 days in which I will have to carry all of my food, medical supplies and camping gear in a rucksack. There is a chance I may be bitten by a snake, bitten by a sand spider or stung by a scorpian, I may also have no feet left after the race as the blistering I will experience does not bear thinking about!

Why am I doing this well I'm mad .... but as well as that I want to push myself to the limits and also raise much needed funds for a worthwhile charity.

 

To read how my training is going please visit me on
