Race food!

Back from the jungle

With battered feet and tiredness I have returned from the heat of the jungle to the cool of Derbyshire - Photos and report to follow.....

Jungle Marathon

I woke early this morning and checked the temperature in Brazil not bad - only 21 degrees. As I went for my run in sorts and vest I realised it was 4am in Brazil!
It may be cooler in Hell!

Now the dog is at her holiday retreat, my bags are packed, hotel is booked and all my travel documents are ready to go I have a few butterflies.

Keep up to date by checking the Jungle Marathon website.

Feel free to send me encouraging words - I may need a few!

Packed!

Packed and ready to go.

and I fixed the shower!

Final Countdown

Only two days till the off!

Today will include fixing my dripping shower and packing, unpacking and repacking more than a few times.

Will has brought me a 30l pack to try rather than my 40l - lets see if I can get it all in!

At some point today I will need to try the flash new hammock and teach myself how to arrange the fly sheet. I think it will be important to be able to rig it up ASAP once I have finished each day. The last thing I need when I should be resting is discomfort or to be stressing about the basics.

Right - Plumbers merchants here I come.
