All my Marathon des Sables 2023 (4k)

My dramatic, sometimes ethereal, 2023 adventure on the 250km 7 day desert foot race which is the Legendary Marathon des Sables in Morocco. This includes all my best scenes from the desert set to music. It also includes the dramatic story of how, at 66, I almost didn't make it to the Finish. Lots of great views, music and daily resumes.
As it is a long video I have added chapter markers to make it easier to watch in several sittings:
0:00:00 Intro
0:03:11 Stage 0
0:06:04 Stage 1 (36km)
0:12:13 Stage 2 (31.7km)
0:32:52 Stage 3 (34.4km)
0:42:11 Stage 4 (90km)
0:54:37 Stage 5 (42.2km)
1:06:16 Stage 6 (9km)
1:11:49 Resume

​@@GALEFORCETVat what time in the morning does each day race start and how is the temperature at this point?

[@GALEFORCETV]

@@rawmeet1117I don't remember the actual times. Its all a bit weird anyway as the official race time is not the same as Morocco time! Seems to me that the start is usually about 2 hours after sun up. Just enough time to do all the necessary sit around for a moment then get to the start. Last year was a bit exciting as they moved one of the starts back 1 hour due to the exceptional afternoon heat. Temperature was probably 20C to 25C in the morning.
