On February 20, Charlie, Ray and Kevin touched the Red Sea, just a few hours before sunset. Their quest had lasted 111 days and taken them through 6 countries: Senegal, Mauritania, Mali, Niger, Libya, and Egypt. By the team's daily GPS record, they had traveled over 4,300 miles (6,920 kilometers). They fought through injury and extreme fatigue to reach their goal, which changed them forever. “Running the Sahara” took place during November 2006 – February 2007. It is an on-going mission to raise awareness for water issues in West Africa; to help provide a way to dig many new wells, giving the opportunity for the people of the Sahara to maintain access to a water source. This documentary film was created to help give a look at the life of the Sahara, good and bad, and the experience that 3 extreme athletes had during this time.
