6 Marathons in 6 Days: The Ultimate Endurance Test: (Inside the mind of an ultra marathon runner )

Marathon Des Sables is one of toughest races on earth. It involves running 250km over 6 days... across the Sahara desert. As if it wasn't hard enough they also have to carry all their on food and gear for the event. As far as endurance running and ultramarathons go, Marathon Des Sables is one of the most challenging environments to complete this type of event. We caught up with Scott MacDonald, a peak performance coach, who is currently training for Marathon Des Sables in a few short weeks time. We spoke about why he is training for this event, how he is training for the event and the type of mindset needed to get through an event like this. Throughout the interview recovery was highlighted as a key factor within his training. Scott makes use of the hydrotherapy pool, sauna, as well as the hot and cold baths we have at Oriam. This is all in the effort of allowing his body to recover from the gruelling miles he is putting in over the hills in Edinburgh.
