Contact during the MDS

I just received the following communication about how to keep in touch and follow my progress during the MDS:

For friends and family wishing to send you emails during the MdS from 7 April:

They will need to go to http://www.darbaroud.com/index.php?lang=en and click on ‘Write to a competitor’ or ‘Ecrire aux concurrents’. They will need to have your running number (DOS). They must NOT try to send attachments or anything other than plain text, or the email won’t be delivered! Messages left on the Darbaroud Forum will NOT be forwarded, nor will messages sent to me (although I will get back to the sender).

THIS FACILITY WILL NOT APPEAR ON THE WEBSITE UNTIL 7 APRIL AND WILL BE REMOVED ON 13 APRIL!
There will also be a finish webcam on the above page, so they might spot you crossing the line each day.

If anyone has trouble using the site, they can email me at mds@realmorocco.com or bommds@travelzest.com, however, as Monday is a bank holiday, I’m unlikely to pick up before Tuesday morning. You can also call me on 0845 026 4575 – I will be answering calls for the rest of the week.

Following your progress:

Daily results will be posted here: http://www.darbaroud.com/resultats/participants.php?epreuve_id=2012&langue=en
Last year, it was possible to follow arrival through checkpoints – I’m not sure if this will happen this year. Please make sure that your supporters are aware that these results take time to update – mostly they are quite good, but occasionally someone’s results get missed.
