    Just to say that we really enjoyed the newbie trip – good pace & good fun. I recorded 33.23 km in about 2:20, but I missed the first few km as I forgot to start recording – my Garmin watch put this down as a run, which is now on Strava – 33km run in the desert in the heat of the day- my kids somehow thought that I’d been cheating… 🙂
