I am writing to you from Alter do Chao, Brazil, the heart of the Amazon Jungle where the 2009 edition of the Jungle Marathon has just finished. 120 competitors running 220km through the thick jungle over 5 days. Covering this event has definitely been a marathon for me and Adam, my fellow cameraman. There has been close calls for some of the athletes with four of them ending up in Santarem’s hospital but they all now seem to have recovered. Fire ants and hornet bites, horrendous feet blisters and fungus infections have punctuated this event throughout. Only half of the contestants made it by the finish line.

Check out the daily video web diaries for the gruesome details…
