Mongolia Ultra Marathon


Land of the Nomads. Running in the Steppes on the edge of Siberia for a true nomadic experience.

An unforgettable foray into the hinterland of Mongolia to experience the breathtaking beauty of its countryside.  This vast land encompasses a fabulous array of pristine landscapes and nomadic people whose lives are in many ways unchanged since the days of Genghis Khan and the mighty Mongol Empire who controlled his vast empire from Mongolia, situated between Russia and China. A nature lover’s paradise. 
I did not write this mess.  It's from the website.

So I'm doing this crazy thing.  I'm going to Mongolia to run an ultra marathon over a weekend in June.  I'll be doing a total of 60 km and staying in a yurt (called a ger in Mongolia).

And feel free to call, text or email me to ask if I have gone running that day :)

Ella's sports day

 Ready to start with her house team, Dragons. 
The kids were divided into groups that rotating through stations like shotput, long jump, fun zone, sprints and baseball.

 All of Year 3 was involved.  It was held at a public sports ground at Tsing Yi


 Ella running I don't know how far.  I think it was 1 and a half times around the track?  Or was it 3/4?

 She came in 5th for all the girls in Year 3.  I thought that was amazing, she thought it was crap
 This was in the fun zone area where they did a relay involving throwing a rubber chicken, sack race and 3 legged race.
