This video delivers a powerful insight into how these elites unlock their incredible performances - lessons the rest of us can build into our own endurance toolkits to get the best from ourselves, whether in the MDS or another endurance endeavour, or even simply in daily life and business.

In the second part Warren then unpicks 'The 3 biggest things no one tells you about the Marathon des Sables'. 

If you're running this crazy race - or are simply curious - this is a must-watch, giving you an instant heads up on what really lies ahead for runners across their week in the Sahara.

As a parting bonus, there's also the one simple nutrition trick anyone can use to boost their endurance performance. 

And all in one 25 minute video. Enjoy!
