The Marathon Des Sables is billed as the toughest footrace on earth. A six day, 251km ultramarathon, comprising the equivalent of 6 regular marathons, the MDS is set in the Sahara Desert, Morocco covering sand dunes and maddeningly tricky sandy terrain, in absolutely blistering heat.
But Profeet ambassador, Pierre, is no stranger to this race having completed the event in 2021 achieving an amazing 9th place overall. This despite higher temperatures than usual topping a life-threatening 56˚C, which led to the highest drop-out rate ever seen in the race. A sure testament to Pierre’s powers of endurance and peak fitness levels.
The Marathon Des Sables 2023
From April 21st to May 1st, this year, Pierre will again be attempting the Marathon Des Sables, but this time as part of a team, a slightly different approach to the race.
You can read more about the next escapade and Pierre’s training activity in this article featured on the Fulham and Hammersmith website.

Supported by Profeet custom insoles
Profeet is proud to support Pierre and provides custom insoles and training footwear. He has benefitted from our hi-spec 3D Motion Analysis service, which explores running metrics in detail. This level of information reveals insights about movement patterns identifying weaknesses and strengths and areas to work on. This kind of data leads to improvements in performance allowing for fine-tuning and the all-important marginal gains.
Pierre has a history of competing in distance races completing the UTMB for a second time in 2021 and tried his hand at triathlons in 2022, besides turning in a super-fast 10K at Kew Gardens. It’s fair to say that Pierre is a versatile athlete able to adapt to different disciplines.
