The Sahara desert challenge is a 3 day 100 mile ultra marathon in the Moroccan Sahara supported by Maroc nature & @Prometheusmed

[SaharaSandDance @SaharaSandDance]

With the weather like it is here in West Wales it makes a pretty good training climate for the Sahara in October, long hot days, beautiful

[SaharaSandDance @SaharaSandDance]

The Sahara challenge has 8 members this year from various backgrounds ,we have a common goal,to raise funds for @Velindre #greattobeus

[SaharaSandDance @SaharaSandDance]

The Sahara is the largest hot desert in the world and the third largest desert in the world behind the Antarctic and Arctic

[SaharaSandDance @SaharaSandDance]

In the Sahara during October daytime temperatures can reach 35°c while at night it can drop to 5°c making it feel much colder.

One of the best things about events of this nature... friendships forged through adversity

[SaharaSandDance @SaharaSandDance]

Sometimes there are hills...huge ones ...just made out of sand, like some evil genius placed them there
