The Marathon des Sables is known as the toughest footrace on earth. 6 days running over 250 kilometres, carrying all of your supplies on your back. It's not for the faint hearted, and this week, we're talking to a man who crossed the finish line just a month ago. It's former Made in Chelsea star, podcaster, entrepreneur, founder of CleanCo, Spencer Matthews. Spencer and Jenni talk about what it was really like running in the hottest recorded Marathon des Sables, the places you go to mentally when undertaking such a challenge, blisters, the endless sand dunes, staying in a bivouac, the celebratory tattoo idea that never came to fruition and his next challenge idea. This may not get you wanting to sign up, but it will definitely motivate you to get out there challenging yourself. Enjoy.
