- Gobi March - The even bigger one, the one I've spent two years training for, the one that will make, break or possibly kill me. Part of the toughest foot race on the planet, the first of the 4 Desert series. A gruelling 250km (165 miles) of the hottest most remote desert in Asia with average 40 degrees centigrade temperatures in the day and freezing at night this is as tough as it gets. Having to carry your entire provisions on your back, only getting replenished with water i will have to endure for days of consecutive marathons topped off with a day/night 50 mile ultra marathon1 This is not for wimps, in fact this is not for many people and if I die trying, I die trying everyone goes eventually.
