thing is though - northern england is pretty much the same most times.

when you are in the sahara for a specific purpose tho, you dont really mind being hot, as you are dressed and prepared to accept it.

on top of that, you dont really get to clean yourself properly for a week either so each sandstorm that comes along just sticks another nice layer of sand on you

all good fun

Try Death Valley Nights by Blue Oyster Cult. Perfect.

Survive? Yes.

Run a marathon? No.

Yous crazy, chummers.

Are those Standard or Iron rations?

Iron-man rations, perhaps?

Would have to be cool otherwise those woodies are likely to have caught mummy rot in that climate, I'd think.

I am told it is hot and dry (just like a desert   )  if one exists there it may be in OK shape.  

Somehow I do not think there are many players in Egypt, I don't know why I think that just a hunch

david: i learnt a lot of things this time round, some pretty much the hard way, but a lesson nonetheless.

O/T: i am doing the great langdale marathon in september if you fancy having a bash at that? thats kinda up your way slightly

back on topic: your distances are getting pretty good now, keep it up. times n stuff are pretty irrelevant really. its putting in a good distance and feeling good about it that matters - more respect for you doing that tbh.

i found this year, that i simply couldnt run. the climate was WAY too hot for me to run in. some could, but i simply couldnt - well not for more than a few hundred metres anyway. what i found was that although i knew my body would heat up a lot, i found it did that a LOT and eventually i would start feeling light-headed and see little white spots, so that was a sign to gooooo slower and hey you cant do that.

so this time round, i am gonna powerwalk, which is what i have been doing pretty much at the moment and to sort my training out some so that i cross-train and not just do the same stuff all the time. gonna do walk up snowdon in a few weeks and go do some hill walking down in the brecon beacons in august. quick walking can be just as hard as jogging, specially if youre not used to it, believe me! but i am feeling somewhat better now about things - my hip is lots better now, tho not totally right, but good enough that i can deal with it now and i find that i cant run a lot now - my left knee is in a really bad way from all the abuse over the last year, so i am gonna jog sparingly, 7 miles max on a running session which takes about 55 mins. i have also been cycling 15 miles too and as i say my walks are up to 13-14 miles now. my next walk this weekend will be appx 17 miles. i hope to steadily build that each week, as long as my legs are ok with it - who knows! i have also learnt to rest a little more too and slowly build things and have a good solid final 6 months instead of killing myself too much

anyway....
