Multi-stage self-supported desert ultra: ~250km over 6 stages / ~7 days across the Moroccan Sahara, carrying all your own food and kit (pack 6.5-15kg). Extreme heat, soft sand, an ~80km Long Stage through the night. A running/fast-walking event — heat tolerance, feet and pack strategy matter, not FTP.
