It's time to conquer this desert

I'm taking off tomorrow, around 11am, from Doha Golf Club. If I can come back alive, I'll put some photos here. ha ha ha

It took me 7 hours and a half to finish this journey from the roundabout by golf club to the petrol station near twin tower. much difficult than I thought. a real training day. 4 litre water is not enough to drink. I used up all the water I took 3 km before the twin tower. On my way back, I took the bus 102X, 7 riyals for adult ticket.

maybe one or two towel is useful. when the sunlight is strong you may soak the towel with water and wrap it in your head. it will help you from heat stroke

I might not have that ability to run in the desert.

If possible, let me know when you run next time.

Maybe, I could have a try.

(^_^)

We run in the desert all year round so nothing new for me..

J.N.

I bought the followings in Al Saad: knife, sun-hat, essential balm, mirror, lighter

and I'll hunt for a good sun-glasses in CityCentreMall tonight, maybe, a travel bag, or something. RAKA and ZhenXing all show the interest, but haven't decided.

ha ha (^_^)

haha DING! how's ur preparation btw

iemaeema you are on :P

As you said it will be one crazy thing to remember when I look back on my time in Doha ;)

If I can find some friends here who can walk with me, we'll discuss the exact time and starting point together.

If not, that day, I'll take off around 6am, from Landmark Shopping Mall.

I previously set that date on 16-Oct,but there is a Banana Island Trip organized by Recreation Centre of QF, and I have to go there with my friends.

The end of Oct is a good time, as you said, won't as hot as now. Many thanks, you are the path-finder of our people,ha ha :)

1) If we spend several hours in that Irish pub at Thursday night, headache will come on Friday, for sure.

2) Tanned skin is great, sexy!

3) I've been proud of quite a few stupid things I did before, most people feel the same, I'm sure.

10hrs walking oh noooooooooooooo......if i need to walk 10min,that also hard for me..ok dude all d best.

lol blue_rose ji...

tatz too easy and no hassel in making cornflakes..

i say people are getting too lazy these dayz...:(

rizks i dont know how to make paratha.i will give u cornflakes in ur tiffin box :)

Please be very careful... The heat and dehydration can be surprising here.. What you need is someone in a car giving you regular refreshments..

y the walk is only for one day??it will be tiresome and people will sleep for the other whole day

one should walk daily abt 30-40 mints to keep themselves fit :)

but I doubt it very much! Keep safe though!

blue_rose ji can u prepare for me breakfast and give me a tiffin box also along with some nicely home made Fresh Juices...? :)

from where ur walk will be starting??

n those people who are going for a walk please take water bottles and juices with u and also some snack..also take towel with u..u are going to sweat a lot.

eat a heavy breakfast n then start walking..

I may join you actually if you are serious.

It won't be that hot towards the end of october, let me drive down to Al Khor again this weekend and check out the path for walking.

10 hours of march in dis sun :O..

Benefits :

1 ) Goin to suffer frm Headache

2 ) Get ur self excessively tanned

3 ) Pplz seeing us on de road shall call us Mad ..:P

--Kisa, I can not understand what you've put on.

--Shapil, this's my first time to do such thing, and I finished 10K run through Liverp'l Tunnel with 55 mins. The good thing is that, I'M FAT, ha ha. Yes, I'll walk along the highway, so, I won't lose my way. Of course, I'll keep 50 meters away from the highway. it should be ok.

Thanks

have you done it before? will you be walking on the side of the highway...is it safe? i am interested but cautious.

lemme join wid u !
