The Steppe Sisters' Sophie's Survival Strategies...

The Steppe Sisters' Sophie has been considering survival strategies recently in preparation of the Mongol Derby...
Less than one month to go... Preparing for the Mongol Derby has become a second full time job. It seems like every bit of my free time is now taken up by riding, going to the gym, buying equipment or considering different survival strategies.
Although Sian and I are on different sides of the channel, we speak almost every day either via numerous emails, texts or phone calls and have been preparing in similar ways. I think James, her fiancé, is beginning to feel left out. Despite this he has continued to be an enormous help.
We have encountered many difficulties from the start and I sincerely hope that the perseverance that has bought us this far will lead us to the finish line, together, in one piece but more importantly allow us to raise important funds for our charities.
I have chosen Agronomes et Vétérinaires sans frontières (AVSF) as my charity because it is a fantastic international charity which helps livestock farmers internationally group together to combat animal disease. The work of the charity benefits both their owners and their animals through improving animal health systems and farming practices in order to improve productivity.
This is the link to my charity :
