I Finished MdS!


I returned back home today (Tues). MdS finished on Saturday morning with runners appearing exhausted but elated out of the dunes into dowtown Merzouga after an 11km final stage. The last section was a 1:30min 'sprint' over the 'Erg Chebbi' sand dunes for me. I finished in 236th position overall for the week, taking 35 hrs 17 mins. I am proud to have completed and extremely pleased with myself to have placed so well out of 757 competitors. I have felt stronger every day and have only three small blisters. Very lucky and in the minority in that respect. More later but now I need to sleep, eat and let my body relax. I'll download my photos later.
Thanks much to Tess for updating in my absence.
