Hello From Tent 129

Received the following note today from Jennifer Vogel, which was sent following the completion of Stage 1 of the Marathon de Sables:






First stage - 18 miles - down. It's awesome out here. Morocco is beautiful. The heat, desert, the mountains, absolutely breath taking!! Lane beasted the dry river beds, dunes, and salt flats that we encountered today. He is going to be so strong at Badwater. Me?? I'm just trying to figure out how it all works. But being out in such a big expanse of nothing really makes you realize how little you really are! I cant wait to see what the surprises (and extreme heat) the week brings. This is by far the toughest thing we've tried so far. The emails are amazing. PLEASE PLEASE everyone keep them coming. We are in tent 129.




Stay tuned for updates on today's 35.5 kilometer Stage 2.
