Brigid's running blog: My third time at Sahara (Marathon Des Sables)
http://runbrigidrun.blogspot.com/2008/03/my-third-time-at-sahara-marathon-des.html
Wednesday, 19 March 2008. My third time at Sahara (Marathon Des Sables). Sand in your shoes, wind in your face, the horizon. Undefinably far away. Some like it hot. And are not sent to the desert, but. Go on their own free will, with fondness. It's that wonderful time again. Time for the Sahara. Of course , I'll be taking hundreds of pictures as well. And I'd love it if you helped me through these moments. How? You can of course follow the race on the website - they update the list of those who are still...

Monday, 24 December 2007. Training in snow shoes - for tropical marathons! As soon as I found the right remote area with the most virgin snow, I strapped up my knapsack, buckled on the snow shoes, and set out for the highest mountain of the Black Forest, the Feldberg. Snow shoes and hot thoughts. Sunday, 9 December 2007. Aside from being in one of my favourite countries, I’ll be able to see wonderful friends again I met at the Great Tibet Marathon in Ladakh.

Tuesday, 25 September 2007. Training for the Marathon des Sables - Physical endurance and Mind over Matter. Hmmm, a lot of factors to consider while training. Where to start? How does one prepare for something like this? Factors to consider for the desert:. Heat / low humidity. Sand and many various difficult terrains. Duration – one week and 6 stages back to back. Backpack with approx. 10 -12 kg (at the first start). And last but certainly not least:. Thursday, 13 September 2007. Water - Lifeline of MDS.
