Sorry for the delay in updating today. I have been travelling back to the UK and just got to a computer. Day 5 is 42.2km - Oued el Jdaid - Erg Znaigui.
I will be taking part in the Comrades Marathon in South Africa,to raise awarenss and funds for the Els for Autism Foundation and the Dubai Autism Center. I am running the race for Ben Els, who is the son of South African golfing legend Ernie who was diagnosed with autism 4 years ago. I contacted the Els for Autism Foundation and Ernie was delighted to hear that I want to run for Ben and raise awareness for the disorder. There is no known cure for autism.
