  • Marathon Des Sables’ 2003–2012 Christoph Knoth1, Beat Knechtle2,3*, Christoph Alexander Rüst2, Thomas Rosemann2 and Romuald Lepers4
    Knoth et al. Extreme Physiology & Medicine 2012, 1:13 http://www.extremephysiolmed.com/content/1/1/13 RESEARCH Open Access Participation and performance trends in multistage ultramarathons—the ‘Marathon des Sables’ 2003–2012 Christoph Knoth1, Beat Knechtle2,3*, Christoph Alexander Rüst2, Thomas Rosemann2 and Romuald Lepers4 Abstract Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate participation and performance changes in the multistage ultramarathon ‘Marathon des Sables’ from 2003 to 2012. Methods: Participation and performance trends in the four- or six-stage running event covering approximately 250 km were analyzed with special emphasis on the nationality and age of the athletes. The relations between gender, age, and nationality of finishers and performance were investigated using regression analyses and analysis of variance. Results: Between 2003 and 2012, a number of 7,275 athletes with 938 women (12.9%) and 6,337 men (87.1%) finished the Marathon des Sables. The finisher rate in both women (r2 = 0.62) and men (r2 = 0.60) increased across years (p < 0.01). Men were significantly (p < 0.01) faster than women for overall finishers (5.9 ± 1.6 km·h−1 versus 5.1 ± 1.3 km·h−1) and for the top three finishers (12.2 ± 0.4 km·h−1 versus 8.3 ± 0.6 km·h−1). The gender difference in running speed of the top three athletes decreased (r2 = 0.72; p < 0.01) from 39.5% in 2003 to 24.1% in 2012 with a mean gender difference of 31.7 ± 2.0%. In men, Moroccans won nine of ten competitions, and one edition was won by a Jordanian athlete.

  • Sahara Desert Travel Information
    Sahara Desert Travel Information Extending from Morocco to Egypt, Sahara is third largest desert in the world. “All sunshine makes the desert” says an Arabic proverb. Sahara Desert is a natural oven of biblical proportions in which every oasis is a refuge for intrepid travelers. From the coast of Casablanca to the Nile delta in Cairo, the transgressing sheet of sand fades out into infinity. In this fount of solitude where sand is as orange as it gets, the only god is water and night is the only deliverance. This uncharitable land, which is roughly as big as the United States, evokes an irresistible sense of antiquity and mystery. History The desert began to form as the land eroded after the water evaporated in the late Ice Age about 100,000 years ago. The fringes of the desert were inhabited by early human civilizations. The extensive rock art of Palaeolithic period, which stretches back at least 10,000 years, shows that nomadic tribes like Berber, Tuareg, and Bedouin have called this area home. Over the years, their culture and traditions evolved as they interacted with the Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, Vandals, Arabs, and most recently Europeans. Things to Do in Sahara Desert Contrary to popular notion, only about 25 percent of its area is blanketed with sand. Thus, activities in this otherworldly landscape can be as varied as the desert itself. Camel Safaris – Since our salad days, most of us dream of sitting on a camel, be it on the Atlas Mountains or in the Nile River Valley. Hop on the flat hump of a ‘ship of the desert' and slowly march into the Saharan countryside.

Holidays with the Family Adventure company Cycling in France Whether you’re a keen cyclist or simply enjoy bike rides at the weekend, we have plenty of one- or two-week cycling holidays to choose from. Trips are designed for teenagers and their families, so there’s every opportunity to make new friends while enjoying some great rides. The holiday package includes accommodation in some lovely hotels, as well as bike hire and the cost of food and drink. However, there is an additional local charge for staying in private houses that we use when we visit more remote areas during the trip. We avoid city routes – spending the majority of the time cycling on country lanes, and because the bikes we provide are ideal for more challenging riding, those who wish to can also explore mountain tracks.
