Sahara Race
Today, we say farewell & wish ASM Giles all the best in his race across the Sahara Desert of western Egypt. Giles will have six(6) days to run, walk & crawl over 250km in fierce temperatures to reach the finish. He’ll be required to carry all his food, gear & clothing throughout the race….water is provided. His training for the event has included several morning runs covering large distances over Sydney streets & more recently the Sydney Marathon. Giles also came up with a few ideas to lighten the load, he had his Appendix removed & did a few practice runs down Elizabeth Street with no pants. Why is he doing this race? The most simple explaination is that he’s nuts but he also likes the spot light and with live coverage he should get his 5 minutes of fame. Plus return a man…….
