Desert-Ed: Workaid Visit
http://edgehonson.blogspot.com/2007/04/workaid-visit.html
Thoughts on my preparations for, and participation in, Marathon des Sables 2007. Friday, 6 April 2007. I visited Workaid, the small self-help charity I raised funds for (currently approaching £7,000). Sylvia Parrot (Chairman) and Bill Duperouzel (Administrator) along with many of the volunteers who refurbish all the tools were there to greet me and hear all about my adventure. They were all very keen to see the state of my feet which sadly (! Friday, April 06, 2007. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Desert-Ed: Day of reckoning
http://edgehonson.blogspot.com/2007/03/day-of-reckoning.html
Thoughts on my preparations for, and participation in, Marathon des Sables 2007. Saturday, 24 March 2007. And everything so far has gone well. But he is scared at what's up ahead. Wha exactly is up ahead? 29km the first day, 33 the second, 35 the third, 70 the fourth, rest the fifth, 42 the sixth, then 11 the last. But the last day is all sand dunes! It is a circular route that takes them to a place called Merzouga. Saturday, March 24, 2007. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). What is Marathon des Sables?

http://edgehonson.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html
Thoughts on my preparations for, and participation in, Marathon des Sables 2007. Monday, 26 February 2007. Here's the man who got me into all this. Sark Kenny has been running with me for a while and we signed up for this package tour of southern Morocco together two years ago. The two of us are one half of our UK summer racing team The Gherkins. Monday, February 26, 2007. It's great what you see when you're out running. Salvation Army founder's grave. And the latest iPod model in shop window. About 130 ...

Desert-Ed: Day 2: 35km - Done
http://edgehonson.blogspot.com/2007/03/day-2-35km-done.html
Thoughts on my preparations for, and participation in, Marathon des Sables 2007. Tuesday, 27 March 2007. Day 2: 35km - Done. It is almost impossible to describe how amazing this is! Sark and I finished together in 5 hours 55 minutes, having completed what evryone is describing as the toughest ever stage. Two mountains, the last of which rose like a colossus out of a hot dry plain which took over two hours to get across. Just when you thought you had only 5km to go the markers pointed upwards! MdS is the ...

Desert-Ed: Day 5: Rest day
http://edgehonson.blogspot.com/2007/03/day-5-rest-day.html
Thoughts on my preparations for, and participation in, Marathon des Sables 2007. Friday, 30 March 2007. Day 5: Rest day. Rest day after the long 70km stage. As you can imagine the tone around camp has changed. I am sure you will hear about it on the news so please don't worry. I am fine. I came in yesterday in 12hrs 19mins, to make me 235th overall in just over 28hrs. It was a long hard hot day, but I ran well on my own. Thanks for all emails. Friday, March 30, 2007.

Desert-Ed: Day 4 - no news yet

Thoughts on my preparations for, and participation in, Marathon des Sables 2007. Wednesday, 28 March 2007. Day 4 - no news yet. This isn't Ed. I just downloaded and posted it because I imagine that's what he looks like - bandaged feet, empty water bottles and all. Most participants are running through the night, so we're not getting an update tonight. Wednesday, March 28, 2007. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). What is Marathon des Sables?

Desert-Ed: March 2007

Thoughts on my preparations for, and participation in, Marathon des Sables 2007. Saturday, 31 March 2007. Day 6: 42.4km - Done. I'll try to describe this event when I get home but for now it has been the most incredible experience of my life. Utterly recommended for anyone. There are lots of solid walkers as well as runners. For now we are all so dirty and yet content. Even the cripples who have feet problems, and there are many. Saturday, March 31, 2007. Friday, 30 March 2007. Day 5: Rest day. As you ca...
