My name is Duncan MacRae and I've been fortunate enough to be chosen to represent performance clothing specialists UVU in this year's Jungle Marathon!
Its the equivalent of 6 marathons in 6 days across the Amazon Rainforest, where temperatures will reach 40 degrees and humidity is up to 95%!
I'd been looking for a challenge for some time and in a twist of fate I was chosen as a model for a UVU photo shoot. Upon discovering that UVU are sponsoring this year's Jungle marathon, I became obsessed with the idea of entering. CNN voted the race 'the toughest endurance race in the World' and only 14 people finished the 100km stage in last year's race- this is certainly going to be the toughest thing I've ever done and I'd like to share my journey by writing this blog!

Dunc, what an inspiring and incredible challenge. I can't quite get my head around how hard it must be. Looking forward to following your progress on the blog. Hx
