Dear All,
As a concluding blog, I'll keep it brief.
We touched down at Heathrow earlier today to be welcomed by our families. We're all feeling a big sense of achievement, relief and exhaustion (from an enormous night in Beijing). The whole endeavour was honestly the best experience I've ever been through and have met some great people on the way too.
Apologies for going silent on Day 5 as I wasn't able to move more than a few metres from my bed due to my feet; however am off to the plastic surgeon tomorrow to judge the extent of my sore paws - I'm sure it will all be ok.
I would like to thank everyone everyone very much for posting messages to me during the race - it really did keep the spirits high. If you haven't already, have a look at the blogs of my comrades too - Tom Muir, Charlie Oakes, Tim Elborne and Jack Tyrwhitt-Drake. Together we hope we painted a good picture for you all.
We'll be collating photos over the next week and eventually try and make a short video from our amateur GoPro footage so please keep in touch if you would like us to send you a disc of the highlights.

Hey everyone,
Reached a low point yesterday during the middle of the night as I got about an hour and half of sleep and having not washed in so long, it wasn't good times in my head. I'm a guy who likes showers and expensive cologne. Anyway we woke up to a chilly morning and headed off as usual
The first stage was good as we all good off to a good pace and Tim disappeared into the distance. But after the first checkpoint, the poop hit the fan as my wretched right knee caved in again and I descended into agony, and was left hobbling up and down rolling hills. As a result of the change in running style to aleviate the IT band pain, the blisters started to worsen...and super quick too
Anyway, I had Chucky by my side and we strolled / hobbled the last 20km. Some sweet chats mixed with times of solace made the time much more bearable. It's remarkable how a mate can lift you out of dark times. We strolled through a small town and were clapped on by all the locals, but there were some pretty wierd propaganda painted all over the place. We also learned a word called "Jai Ho", which we don't know what means but everyone seems to be saying to us as we pass
So Charlie and I got in around 7hrs 25mins; Tom and Jack a good hour earlier, and Tim with an awesome 5hrs 20mins came in the top 30. I went straight to the medical tent to investgate the horrors that lay within my shoes. What was unveiled was unbelievable. Three enormous blisters a good couple of inches long that have no skin left (just pure flesh) were displayed. Sorry for the graphic imagery. We'll also have it on GoPro for those who can stomach it later. They're probably the worst in camp and the meds have asked the fatefully question of whether I want to pull out
NO WAY. Whether it takes 12, 18 or 24hrs, I'll march those 75km and climb those 2,000m
Going to be the hardest day yet of my reasonably cushy life. See you on the other side

Anti......what's gotten I to you? It's much easier with wheels! Or skis! Very proud of you and whatever you wreck we will fix here in Colorado. Much rather you finish in one piece and come on a respectable holiday instead of a surgical one. I know you are almost finished so get back to it and crush it like we do out here in the west. Much respect! Erik

Have been thinking of you all day... The photo of you all bandaged up to the ankles (with your fabulous airline slippers peeping out) was a bit of an early-morning shock at 6am today... necessitating a double shot cappuccino at once !!... I do hope today won't have been as painful on the feet as yesterday, and that by the time you get this you'll be feeling heroic! We're all so proud of you, what you've achieved is amazing.... and your team are all terrific!... not least for propping you up in your direst moments... Give them all a huge hug from me!
Bearski, Give it Horns in the last bit... You are the absolute Priscilla of the Desert!!

Hi Anty,
Sounds as if you are going through a tough time but what you are achieving is amazing. The many lives you will be changing with the funds raised from this epic personal challenge is such an achievement, making you very special. Keep strong and I hope the remainder of the challenge goes well for you and your team. Fiona

Anty,
I'm truly sorry to hear about your feet but I'm even more sorry to hear that you had to spend so long chatting to Oakes. No blister can inflict that sort of misery.
I have no idea how much you must be hurting at the moment but as Julian says, those 10,000 blind people are going to see because of your determination and grit.
You're really playing a blinder here mate and we're all thinking of you whilst you hobble around the desert. I can't wait to chill out with you guys when you return and hear all the stories over one of your stogies.... It's truly inspirational stuff and I'm going to invoke you guys next time one of my Guardsman starts whining about being tired. Keep it up you maniac.
From Wellington Barracks - I salute you!

Hi Big Boy. Thinking of you on the last big push. Good luck and hang in if you can. If not possible for medical reasons that is perfectly OK and what you have already achieved is quite amazing and we are so proud of you and the others. Big thank you to Charlie for his support - it is what this is all about - helping others in adversity. Take care, thinking of you and lots of love. Dad XX

Hey everyone,
Thanks again for the messages – keep them coming please
So today we woke up and was crazy cold, and I managed to drop my warm jacket during Day 2 so really wasn’t feeling up for it. Also the clothes that I washed in the river the night before were still soaking and freezing in the morning
I missed the gun as I was still packing up so I rushed through the start and we quickly ascended some pretty tough hills early on. There was a good breeze in the air so I decided to hit the rolling hills across the plains up to the first checkpoint. Again, we had the Altai mountains on our right, which were stunning as usual. After checkpoint 2, we had a good amount of downhill, so I decided to test the knees out and give it a go. Incredibly, after packing in at the start of Day 1, they seemed to hold up pretty well. So I just kept going until checkpoint 3 – the hardest stage in the whole event. The first kilometer of stage 3 was a steep descent into a huge rocky river bed. The river level was low and for the next couple of km, we crossed the river 3 times over some awesome rickety wooden footbridges. Some American dude in front me nearly fell off one as he was checking out the view. This was pretty tough as there were a ton steps between them, but the next bit was nuts
The next kilometer, we climbed 700m! We literally went up at a 60 degree angle and I heard that a few people pulled out of the event this point. To make matters worse, my iPod ran out of juice at the foot of the climb. Anyway, I got the poles out and did my best to get up there in one shape. I caught my breath up at the top for a minute and then set-off again, when suddenly my knees decided not to work. I literally couldn’t put a foot down so I hobbled for the next couple of hundred of metres to try and shake off the pain. I don’t know how but suddenly they kicked into gear as we started a really long descent to checkpoint 3 – maybe it was the voltarol pills. So I gained about 10 places on the way down and decided to skip the water at the next checkpoint and head to the finish line across more rolling hills. I saw an English lady 500m away and a Chinese dude on the horizon, so I got the burners on and hunt them down. They slowly got closer and closer and after passing the English girl, I eventually caught the Chinese guy in a dry river-bed with about 1km to go. Soon the finish line was in sight so I gave it everything and came in at 5hrs 25mins placing 14th for the day
The 3 blisters I accumulated over the day were worth it, but to give it the same tomorrow before the long day may not be very wise…we’ll see
Otherwise the campsite here is pretty awesome apart from a ton of goat poop on the ground. The vibe in tent 10 is still cool apart from the others are dumping their breakfast food sachets as they can’t stomach them. Being greedy and having an infamous sweet-tooth, I’m a fan of the porridge so am capitalizing on the situation
The aloof Turk came to visit the tent this afternoon where we found out the guy has a super heavy backpack as he’s not his own stove in there to cook tortellini every night! 12 mins behind Leonidas overall and I’m still backing him on the long day. Joe in our tent killed it finishing 4th on the day
Speak tomorrow x

Dear Anthony,
When I read your blog, I thank God that my daughter hates adventures...
Anyway, it seems like you are having a lot of fun out there amongst goats, their poop and blisters in your feet. Good for you!
You are not missing too much here although Rupert is very excited because England is winning against New Zealand in the cricket.
Lots of love from both of us.

Keep up the good work mate - you're doing an awesome job out there. Unbelievably impressed with you guys and proud of what you're all acheiving.
One night in Beijing is going to be incredible if you guys keep up this sterling work. Keep chugging and popping them pills.

Hello Anthony! Miss Wynne's tutor group here! We have been reading your blog this morning and we think you are doing an amazing job with your bad knee. We have been taking part in our own challenges this week too, to raise money for Savirti Waney. One of us did a 20mile bike ride and another did a 20 mile walk and the twins in our class swam the length of the channel between them. Not as tough as you guys! We'll keep up with your progress for the rest of your challenge. Good luck today and keep going! Love from Hereford House tutor group mazzive and Miss Wynne xxxxx <3 (Monmouth School)

Hi everyone,
On Saturday, after a morning of briefings, mandatory kit checks and a big plate of unidentifiable food, we head out of the hotel in Bole in buses into the desert. We arrived around 5.30pm and had plenty of time to chill and meet our new tent mates. With only 150 racers, the group is intimate and there's a really good vibe. The organisers are also really friendly and helpful. So are a freeze-dried chicken korma and a rice pudding that was crunchy, we bunked down for the night. In our tent, it's the 5 Gobi guys, an English guy called Mike, a young Aussie called Joe and 3 South Koreans. One them owns his own food company and has some crazy flavored Korean purees
It get dark really late (around 10.30pm) and the temperature luckily wasn't too cold at night and managed to get around 6hrs of kip, so we woke up at half 6 to get ready for a 8am start. Oats and blueberry flavored cement went down the hatch and we quickly got our stuff together. I've gone for the tactic of taking a large amount of food, electrolytes, energy and a few treats. As I'm a greedy guy, I'll be mucnhing through them at a fast pace, but what it means is that my bag weighed-in [with water] at 12.5kgs. This is definitely on the upper-end but I'm writing this feeling pretty good so I'm cool with my choice. Some guys weighed their bags in at 6kgs, which is nuts!
So we kicked-off at 8am and headed out into the desert! And you'll never believe it... by the first checkpoint my the IT band on my right knee was burning so hard that I was forced to walk the rest of the day. The knee flared up 2 months ago after the Two Oceans ultra in Cape Town over Easter and I've literally thrown the kitchen sink at trying to get it fixed in time...so initially I was pretty bummed. Tom and Charlie kindly kept me company all the way through the day, and after borrowing Charlie's poles (a pair of 25 quid lead pipes as I dropped one of my new swanky carbon fibre poles before reaching checkpoint 1), I realised that I'm pretty bad-ass at walking. In the meantime we formed a group called the Chilled Squad. I self-proclaimed myself as general of the Squad. After some mild mutiny of my autocratic status from Tom, the issue was settled after I gave him a fistful of biltong
S a dodgy IT band isn't something one can shake-off so I'll be marching the rest of this one out. It's really painful going downhill so I have to do a weird sidestep-shuffle similar to what my Dad does when the Beach Boys comes on; but other than that, ups and flats I'm going to tear-up tomorrow. Walking this isn't going to be easier than running as it takes a lot longer obviously. The long day (80km) on day 5 is going to take something extraordinary from within to endure. I reckon I'll be out there for a good 20hrs. Anyway, Tim and Jack were ahead today and posted good times of over 6hrs and I came in at over 8. Joe in our tent came 8th, which is sick! First was an Italian triathlete champion who looks like King Leonidas from the film 300 - who's chill t-shirt of choice reads "King of the Desert". Charlie can't take his eyes off his huge shaved hamstrings, and in fact him and Tom have a bet on him to win the thing. On the other side (and with a hundred quid on the table) is me as I'm backing a Turkish dude who's a seasoned pro in these events and has won a few 4Deserts events in the past. Don't know his name but he came in 30 seconds behind Leonidas so looking good
The scenery is breathtaking. Being with your best mates through 42km of amazing rock formations, pastures, camels, local nomads, and all through land that we've been granted special access to by the government as it's restricted for some reason to tourists (maybe we're going over their Area 51 or something). The weather was hot but ok as there was nice cloud cover that came in for a few hours
Not being able to wash is pretty rank and I'm caked in dust but I'm not here look sexy so looking forward to getting out the lead poles and hitting the track again!
This one goes out to Wendel who completed the Comrades marathon today in South Africa. Hope you got your long awaited silver man!

No BearBlogs for the last 2 days ???!... We are dying for news ! But totally thrilled by your results... what kind of deal did you strike with the IT band??? Whatever it was, we hope the truce is happy and long lasting!... Had v. unsettling visions of you possibly ending up in Beijing for several days, surrounded by Peking ducks, slathered in Tiger balm, and having to junk all your exotic foodstuffs.... Well Done so far... It is so exciting!!
Thinking of you all, love to you all, and hoping that the blister brigade are hardening up.
Time for a blog please!!

VC stay strong and keep going. for tactical advice and a free bar or two visit joel meredith. he is probably up there near the top of the leaderboard. one hell of a guy who has a number of stories. he literally survives on mumford, vaccines, and two door cinema club. he has a superb sun tan and i think you guys will get on very well. another great man is christopher ballou from the NYPD. he will be bedding down with Joel and is full of some great stories. make sure he is keeping on top of his electrolytes as he nearly came a cropper on day 3 last time in the atacama, he is a tower of strength, as is his friend matthew le bow, but he isn't racing this time unfortunately. get in their tent and get stuck in, they are great. Bit of advice, just focus on getting to the long day and enjoy yourself. you are going through monumental pain right now, but lets be honest, you are strong enough. will be checking in tomorrow for an update, good luck and keep going. love to the whole team and joel and chris, Stu
P.S. Whatever you do dont trade any freeze dried meals for muesli or the vegetable pasta, they are rough. ask joel for a bonk breaker, he will debit it from my account

I hope the Chill Squad is bearing up ... Huge thanks to them for hanging in there with General Wounded Knee, biltong or not?!
Much looking forward to next instalment, and have my fingers firmly crossed for a relatively pain-free
