I see as mentioned the BBC are dabbling in a bit of Ultramarathon goodness
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-23044244
Quite easy but good to see on the main BBC news website none the less
There are a couple of flaws in it.
I understand that the thing about white lines at Badwater is a myth.
Although the Marathon de Sables is a very tough event, I don't think it is even in the ballpark of being the toughest race on earth.
Thats what I said about the MDS to somebody next to me. I could think of a few tougher events for sure!
I've heard that although the MDS is hard -it's not the hardest. I got 7/7 but I dont think that its a good indicator It just proves that i listen to Talk Ultra a lot!
