In 6 days time ill be flying out to the Sahara Desert where Ill be expected to run 155 miles in 6 days in 30 degree heat whilst lugging all my camping gear and food for the entire event. Such feats of endurance tend to be for those we like to mock for wearing too much lycra, not DJs with a preference for house and techno. But times have changed with lycra, protein shakes and wiggle.com recently edging out skinny jeans, ale and Phonica Records in my daily routine.
