Get your sleeping right! For my desert race I took a combination of sleep gear to see what worked best depending on the Sahara temperature at night. In the end I left behind my gortex bivvy bag and a silk liner and kept my wicked Mammut 2-Seasons bag (400g) and ultralight Thermarest (300g). I used a £350 Yeti jacket (150g) as a pillow - it was too hot to wear it in the evenings. Mammut bought out Ajungilak - a great Norwegian brand - and so with a 4 degrees comfort rating it was perfect! 💤🥱🛏
HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who has sponsored me a fiver for running the Toughest Footrace on Earth in aid of my friend's children and dog rescue centre in Tanzania. The alternative for these kids and dogs does not bear thinking about 👊❤️☀️

HOW TO ADAPT, OVERCOME & SURVIVE TO THRIVE 👊
1) BE PRESENT - THE PAST DOESN'T EXIST! ☀️
2) NEVER PLAY THE VICTIM CARD - TOUGH LESSONS CREATE MASSIVE LEGENDS! ❤️
3) TAKE ACTION - THE UNIVERSE WILL GIVE YOU BACK TENFOLD! 🔥
4) WAKE UP EARLY - YOU CAN'T SLEEP YOUR WAY TO LEGENDSVILLE! 👏
5) WALK, JOG OR CYCLE AROUND THE BLOCK OR SWIM 10 LENGTHS - LEGENDS NEED SEROTONIN & DMT! 👊
6) HOT SHOWER/COLD SHOWER - LEGENDS NEED TO GET WET AND COLD AS WE DID IN THE NATURE! 👌
7) GREENS FOR LUNCH (PINT OF VEGGIES & SUPERGREENS EVEN BETTER) - LEGENDS NEED A PH BALANCE OF 7.25! 🏝
8) SHUT OUT THE ENDLESS NOISE (MEDITATE, LISTEN TO MUSIC, ETC) - LEGENDS NEED QUIET TIME TO CONNECT WITH THE UNIVERSE, I.E. THEMSELF! 🦘
9) BE KIND AND GENEROUS - ONLY PUT OUT THE ENERGY YOU WANT TO RECEIVE! ❤️
10) TURN OFF THE NEWS & SOAPS - YOU CAN'T GET TO HAPPINESS BY BY WALLOWING IN BRAINWASHING AND MISERY! 🙏
11) ALCOHOL - KNOW WHEN TO QUIT, QUIT WHEN YOU KNOW 😉
12) BE YOU - ...
Okay legends - we're meeting at 7pm tonight for a chat and to cover bushcraft stuff too! https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82430015780
