When you push yourself to accomplish something, for instance, run a race, it may seem very simple to sacrifice a few hours of sleep so you could squeeze in some exercise.

On the 11th October 2019, Scott Jenkins will be the second ever British person and first Welshman, to line up 4000ft above sea level, at what will be marked as the starting line for the Moab 240. The Moab 240 is a grueling 240 mile footrace through the Moab desert in Utah. It has an exceptionally high elevation gain for the course of 29,467ft. To put that into content, the elevation gain is the equivalent of hiking Everest.
