That was a very hot day.
We started running uphill on a mix of sand and stones ground, and cross a few sand dunes.
Going down the sand dunes pretty fast is a lot of fun.
Then we arrive in an oasis before checkpoint 1.
We crossed a small town, then starting crossing the desert until CP2
CP2 and CP3 were challenging as we could see them from far away but we had another half an hour to get there.
CP3 wss right next to an oasis. Then we had to pack 2.5L of water for the next 12k, CP4,
To cross the salt flats. It was super hot. I drank all of it, whereas a normal run in London I would only have half a liter

Hi Everyone, I am nearly ready to fly on Thursday. I will be in San Pedro on Friday and the race will start on Sunday 2nd, good start day as it is also the birthday of my sister Nathalie and my friend Stephane, so I will have some special thoughts for you.
I am so much looking forward to be there, try not to forget anything and get my physio to fix some pain I have been having recently. I am going to start the race slow, as I don't know how this wil turn out. So the first 3 days, I will go slow, take it easy. If everything goes well,
