31st MARATHON DES SABLES 2016 : THE MOVIE

[@JayB2]

This video makes it look allot easier than it really is.

[@mdslegendary]

You're right !

[@trejling]

I´d to quit after 110km due to a split open shoe. I´ll absolutly return again as soon as the economy allows. Next time I´ll bring my no1 fan, my wife! Incredible well organised competition from the Bauer tema! Best ever!Anyone feel to sponsor us? :)

[@deanlufckirton9573]

i'm thinking of entering 2019 just wondering if this race passes a McDonalds or a bargain booze? My hat is off to all you guys truly the toughest race on the planet.

[@Moccalocca100]

This is the toughest sport competition in The world

Has anyone ever noticed that the MDS has the same initials as the Marquis de Sade? A coincidence? Both are/were brutal beyond compare.

Average people: I wanna run the Marathon next year! Duncan Slater: Hold my beer...

[@keanusamuels1782]

This is incredible. I would love to do this but my body is not made for this sadly :/. I used to be hard runner on short distances on high speeds.

[@karlasamuels8011]

Amazing but this video doesn't do it justice to how difficult this would really be, they only focused on the winners who breezed through it!

[@allensinger3865]

IS THERE AUDIO FEED AND LIVE VIDEO OF RACER?

What were the fastest times to finish? What kind of runners vest were used? I noticed a lot of the vest appear to be able to carry regular cycling water bottles, looks like 24oz... Can someone share with me what type of running vests they're using? What types of running shoes?

[@mdslegendary]

Every year the course is different, so not really a fastest time. For 34th edition, first was in 18:31:24 (12,80 km/h). Fast runners use specific bags with backpack and frontpack, with the possibility to put bottles (1,5l) directly in the frontpack. It's faster than filling a can. For those who prefer cans, they use trail running backpacks like this one : boutique.marathondessables.com/fr/materiel-obligatoire/29-201-sac-de-course-fonctionnel.html#/1-taille-s For shoes, running shoes (not trail running shoes) are good, in the sand it's better not to have big studs. The most important is gaiters to prevent sand entering the shoes.

Can you refill your water bottles at each checkpoint?

[@mdslegendary]

Yes according to the checkpoint you can take 1 or 2 bottles of 1,5 l.

[@runningchannel]

Hi there, I am getting in touch from The Running Channel as we are putting together a second round up video of great Running Documentaries/films. (Link to our first round up: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJKuco2nfrhsfq8) We really enjoyed this film and would potentially love to feature it in our video. Would it be ok for us to use some footage from this film? We would just use short clips (up to 30 seconds) from the film and would link to the film in the description box. My email is [e-mail] if you need any more information or have any questions. Thank you!

[@mdslegendary]

Hi Sarah, answer will come by email, thanks for your interest.

Oh, how the videos Can paint a different picture. Like everyone is running...its BS People, 5 procent is running. Everyone else, walking/speed hiking or what ever you wanna Call it. Everyone Can finish, just One foot in front of the other and before you know it, you pass the finish line.

[@user-pd3si6uo2t]

htothejay you have definetly not attaempted this

[@TheComicSonic]

Do you even know how to spell ultramarathon? Yes it is different to a road race, but it is brutal. I'm a regular runner who tried a 10km trail race recently and it destroyed me. These guys are world class athletes. Try a a 10km trail run and report back, you probably wouldn't last 5 minutes..
