The Rat Race - London Weekender
26/27 September 2009

Taking adventure sports out of the wilderness and putting them onto the streets of the World's coolest cities, the Rat Race is a totally unique adventure challenge in which teams race in a multi-sport test of endurance, skills and guts on a course that is only revealed hours before the event begins. Here's a video of the 2007 race - link

The London ULTRA - 50km
13 February 2010

This is the first running of the event which is planned for anyone undertaking the Marathon des Sables or anyone wanting an introduction to Ultra Running. The event has received an overwhelming response and is hotting up to become the next big event to add to the Capital's sporting events calendar. Web link.

The 25th Marathon des Sables, Morocco

The main event. Four years of wait, 100's of kilometers of training, lots of blisters and aches and pains - all for the chance to push myself through 250 km of Moroccan desert. Web link.
