The 20th Marathon des Sables is now over and I am delighted to be back in merry England. The event was a great adventure during which a huge range of terrain was covered, it amounted to 246 km overall during 6 days of racing. The daily temparature averaged a wilting 44 degrees centigrade!
However, I managed to finish and collect my prized medal! I completed the course in 53 hrs 23 mins, coming in at 557th out of 800 participants. I like to think of it as slow, but steady!
