I'm currently reading the autobiography of Lisa Tamati, an NZ-born 
ultradistance runner who has done a number of very long, very hot races 
(Badwater, Marathon des Sables, etc).  Earlier this year she completed La 
Ultra, for which those other two count towards qualifying (yes it's that hard).

Anyway, I'm only about halfway through the book where she'd found out about the 
permanent kidney damage she'd done to herself from trekking through the Libyan 
desert for just over a week on 2 litres of water a day.  So be careful if you 
spend any time in that heat!

Cheers,
Dave
