Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have been running now for around eight years, mainly just to keep fit. I've run a few half marathons and the London marathon, but never undertaken an ultra event such as this. Rather than doing a one day event (which would be the intelligent thing to do), somehow I decided to do a seven day, six marathon ultra in the Sahara desert! It's going to be the toughest thing I've trained for in my life, but I'm hoping it will be an inspirational event too in a beautiful setting. It's difficult to get a place, so I had to take the opportunity when it was offered. 

Given all this effort, it would be remiss not to raise a little something for charity along the way. Jersey Hospice is a great cause, simple as that. It touches the lives of all islanders in one way or another. I can't think of a better local charity to run (or hobble) for.
