This is especially true as they limit the amount of water you are allowed. Water of course being the key ingredient to survival. I would hate to push my body to the point of complete dehydration and muscle breakdown.I guess what I am saying is the story did not fill me with the confidence I would need to trust the organisers with my life. Please note I also believe the extreme weather conditions we are seeing are not a simple freak of nature and I expect we will be seeing more weather changes in the coming years so please allow for these extremes in your next race.
