467--End Day 6


Well, just finished day 6 - the Marathon Day, only 11.2km to go, but through the Kings Dunes, need I say more? Guess you all know about Paul & George by now, real bummer but they stayed with the camp which has really hlped morale.

Day 2 was tough with record drop outs, but day 3 was like the Tet Offensive. The evening sky was red with the glow of distress flares, one Irish guy taken home in a coma one two others had heart attacks. Extraordinarily hot, humid and windy, leading to all time record abandonments. Organisers were forced to rethink the amount of water we were given!

Day 4 was the long day, starting at 10am and I finished at 0330hrs, bushed!! Day 5 was a rest day as some people didnt finish until after midday. I spent it on my back and we were treated to a can of coke in the evening, never tasted so good!

This has been one hell of an experience & fingers crossed I will finish it tomorrow. Simply unforgetable. Many thanks for the emails. M
