***CHECK THE SIDE NAVIGATION “RACE REPORTS” FOR NEW POSTINGS***

I’m hoping to be able to add daily stage reports during the event, as we have access to an email tent at camp. Just check Recent Posts to see anything new.

DO NOT BE ALARMED if you don’t see any reports. More than likely I was unable to get access to the email tent. Lining up for hours in the Sahara sun may not be the best way to recover after the days run… Or there may some technical issues with sending the email to this post.

IF I am able to make the posts, I’m warning you now to please ignore the spelling/ grammar/ and probably somewhat incoherent ramblings. We have a limit of 1 email per day and 10 minutes at the keyboard. My writing skills are poor at the best of times so adding the exhaustion, dehydration, European keyboards, time limit pressure, no spell check, and a general OMG feeling, it may not be my best work. Hopefully you will get the idea.

    Scott, this is amazing. You are amazing. Wow, I was going to contact you today to say “How inspiring you are” “All the best”…., but this throws it over the top. Now I will say “You are SO VERY inspiring (a little crazy) but inspiring none-the-less. And all the best. You will do great. I will think of you and pray for you each day [while I eat chocolate cake 😉 ]. I will be there in strong spirit. If you need me to pace you on the last little leg… Call me. I’ll be your wing-walker.” Love and a hug, Kim.

    Hello Cuz,

    I totally agree with everything Kim has said to you. When Mom told what you were up to I just shock my head with AWE! The thing about it is that if I were to really think about it, you are the one person in the world that would do it great with flair and finesse. You really are amazing and inspiring to all. You are mine inspiration and always have been. I am there with you in spirit if not physically. Remember that my special friend.

    Love you

    Sherri

    Enjoyed reading thru your webpage Scott. Good job. And great job on the race. You trained harder than anyone else in the tent and it showed with a stellar performance. We were all proud to have one of the top runners in our midst.

    Take care amigo!
