An Easy Week...
I have taken it quite easy this week, and as I've found somewhere to live I will be throwing myself into moving over the next few weeks- always an ordeal!!!
Although I have been to the gym and out on a couple of strolls- I walked the long way to Tesco to get my shopping!
A couple of congratulations are in order... to Rich for a successful Atacama Crossing. Rich attempted this last year but was unfortunately pulled out due to a serious illness- however he blazed through it this year; read his race report on his blog.
Also to Mimi for winning the Namibia Desert Challenge- awesome! Read her race report on her site.
Well, it's nearly MdS time again... I can't believe it's almost a year since I boarded the coach and started my journey to Morocco. I wonder what this year's competitors will face- scorching sun or floods and rain!! I feel a really strong tug of nostalgia- I want to be back there again, tackling the dunes, the endless flat plains and the mountains with the amazing people I shared the experience with.
One thing's for sure- I will be going back to the Sahara. It's still kind of unfinished business for me...
