Former Bath Rugby player David Barnes, Bath Rugby Foundation Trustee Stuart Doughty and Help for Heroes’ Band of Brothers Martin Hewitt are setting off in April to take on the toughest footrace on Earth*, The Marathon Des Sables, with the hope of raising over £100,000 for their chosen charities – Help for Heroes, Bath Rugby Foundation and Restart.
On the eve of their departure, here's what they had to say about their mammoth, marathon undertaking.
Donations can be made via the Team's website at mds2014.com.
The Marathon Des Sables runs from 4th – 14th April 2014 and further information about the race can be found at www.marathondessables.co.uk.
