HI RAY
WELL AS I TOLD YOU, I DID THE "DRUIDS" RIDGEWAY PATH EVENT IN WILTSHIRE LAST WEEK-END. WITH ONLY FOUR DAYS TO RECOVER FROM THE ZITOWAY SENEGAL EVENT, IT WAS A LITTLE "MAD" TO DO AN ULTRA SO SOON.
EVERYONE MET UP AT TRING STATION, WHERE OUR CASES WERE TAKEN TO A SCHOOL, WHERE OUR FIRST NIGHT WAS TO BE HELD. DAY ONE WAS A RACE AGAINST THE CLOCK, IN ORDER TO FINISH PRIOR TO THE DARKNESS SETTING IN. JUST A DISTANCE OF 29 MILES. DAY TWO WAS 27 MILES AND AN OVERNIGHT IN A GYM HALL. THE THIRD DAY WAS 28 MILES. FINISHING IN SWINDON. WE WE GIVEN VERY GOOD FOOD FOR BREAKFAST AND DINNER. EN-ROUTE (APPROX EVERY EIGHT MILES) THERE WERE TREATS TO KEEP US GOING/ DRINKS. OUT OF JUST OVER 200 ENTRYS 145 FINISHED. I AM PROUD TO SAY. I WAS ONE OF THEM.A VERY NICE WICKING T/SHIRT AND MEDAL. WELL ORGANISED AND GOOD VALUE. AS ALWAYS, INTERESTING AND FUN COMPETITORS .
ALL THE BEST, KENWYNNE

Kenwynne is one of the most un-assuming ultra runners that i have ever met. she takes part and performs with an amazing ability, which would be incredible even for runners half her age.
I am after permission to post just how old she is for you all .
She takes part in Desert racing with Zitoway Sport, year on year, and always comes back full of beans with great stories of courage and endever. You can read more about Kenwynne when my book comes out early in the new year.
Does anyone else know of amazing athletes. Lets have your stories

WORDS FAIL ME TO TELL YOU HOW WONDERFUL THIS EVENT IS. TO HAVE WILD ANIMALS RUNNING ALONG SIDE YOU, IS AMAZING. TO ACCEND THE HIGHEST SAND DUNE IN THE WORLD IS SOMETHING YOU COULD NEVER FORGET.
AS ALWAYS, THE ZITOWAY STAFF ARE ALWAYS AT HAND TO HELP AND LOOK AFTER ALL YOUR NEEDS.
ADRIANO (THE RACE DIRECTOR) ALWAYS HAS A SURPRISE AT THE END OF EACH EVENT AND I DON'T WANT TO SPOIL IT FOR ANYONE BY TELLING YOU JUST HOW WONDERFUL IT WAS..
I CAN'T WAIT TO GO AGAIN. KENWYNNE

For any athlete new to the desert experience ! THE SAHARA 100km IN TUNISIA IS PERFECT TRAINING FOR THE MARATHONdesSABLES. THE FORMAT IS THE USUAL FOR ZITOWAYS 100km RACES. WHICH WILL INCLUDE A MARATHON ON ONE DAY.YOU SLEEP IN BEDOUIN TENTS DURING THE RACE. THE FOOD IS COOKED BY THE ZITOWAY TEAM AND IS WONDERFUL SPORTS FUEL.
THE ZITOWAY TEAM (INCLUDING A DOCTOR) IS ON CONSTANT PATROL, MAKING SURE YOU ARE SAFE AND AND WELL.
NEXT YEAR WILL BE MY 11th TIME IN THE SAHARA WITH ZITOWAY, SO THEY MUST BE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT. KENWYNNE
