There appears to be any number of deranged persons in this world some of whom enter into a number of physical events to reach a goal both for themselves and collect monies for worthwhile causes such as CanTeen. "CanTeens mission is to support, develop and empower young people living with cancer. They do this by providing an Australia-wide peer support network for 12 to 24 year-olds, who include*:
•Patients - young people who have been diagnosed with cancer
•Siblings & Offspring - young people who have an immediate family member (brother, sister, parent or primary carer) who has been diagnosed with cancer; and
•Bereaved Siblings & Offspring - young people who have had an immediate family member die from cancer"
http://www.desertultrarun.com/home.html tune into this site to see how our No.1 son (No.583) is going along with at least 20 other Aus entrants - there appears to be at least 893 entrants from across the world with one female aged 70+ who has competed and finished in the last 3 years

PS - It starts tonight our time & is a 6 stage/7 day foot race of aproximately 245 - 250km across the Moroccan Sahara desert. It is regarded as:
‘The Toughest Foot Race On Earth’.
