How about the Marathon des Sables?

Ben Fogle's done it... :)

Somehow, the British version sounds harder - guess it's knowing where all of these places are and how far they all are from each other that makes it sound so scary.

Although I think that this has BPBC multisport written all over it - though not me!

what about that tough guy/girl challenge where you do a marathon through mud and fire and stuff?

this year they "only had a few major injuries"

RTT will be your cheerleader. Pompoms and all

I bet Paula couldn't do this; from the website: "Defecating on the course is not allowed, all stools must be done off course and buried or taken away."

I think they should each enter the "Man v Horse" race

I've got a friend who has done that for the last few years - actually beat quite a few of the horses. Apparently their stamina over really long distances isn't that good.

That's coz the horses are too busy burying their poo
