On the 3rd of April 2020 I'll be flying out to the Sahara Desert to compete in the Marathon des Sables (MDS) in order to raise money for LandAid Charity with support from Knight Frank. 

LandAid is the property industry charity whose main mission is to prevent youth homelessness in the UK through community projects and delivering life changing services. 

In terms of the event, the MDS website has this to say; "In just six days you will run over 250km (156 miles) through endless dunes, over rocky jebels, and across white-hot salt plains. The sun will be your constant enemy with temperatures regularly reaching 50 centigrade. The sand will be your constant companion, clouds of it under your feet, sheets of it stinging your eyes and lots of it chafing where it shouldn’t. The long stage has become a legend in itself. You will run out of a Saharan morning, into the dusk and then the dark, many not finishing the 80+km (52 miles) till well into the next day. Your feet will swell, crack and bleed under the pressure and the heat. But none of this will matter when you cross the finishing line – a hero."

I would really appreciate any donation you can muster!

Thanks in advance, 

Lo
