The aftermath of terrorism
December 23, 2018
On the 17th December two young Scandinavian women, Maren Ueland, 28, from Norway, and Louisa Vesterager Jespersen, 24, from Denmark, were found dead on the route to Toubkal in the Atlas Mountains. They had been murdered by Daesh (Isis) terrorists. I live in Imlil, the community were this happened and have seen and shared the shock and horror of the local Amazigh (Berber) people at this vile act. My deepest sympathies to the women's families.
Running the Everest Trail Race Ultra
November 17, 2018
The Everest Trail Race is one of the toughest high altitude ultra marathons in the world. 160km over 6 days, you do 15000m of climbing and go to an altitude of over 4000m. I took on the race in 2018.

How do you feel the night before an ultra? Well, I feel absolutely terrified. On the 8th November, I will be starting the Everest Trail Race: 160km over 6 days with 15,000m of climbing. Wish me luck!
