Team History Channel / EPMartn Completes Racing the Planets Sahara Race

Team History Chanel / EPMartin completes Racing the Planets Sahara race. A self-supported foot race across 150 miles (250 kilometers) of the Sahara Desert in Egypt. Mike Prstojevich (co-founder of EPMartin) along with team mates Hunter Ellis (of The History Channel) and Danny Moy (Professional Adventure Racer) took on this challenge in September 2006 finishing 16th overall. Although Danny had to drop out after injuring his foot and ankle the team pulled and towed him along until it was not possible for Danny to continue. Mike and Hunter continued on to the finish where Danny was reunited and crossed the finish line together as a team.

EPMartin returns to Egypt in support of Charlie Engle and the teams run across Africa. We will be there the final days of this epic journey covering more than 4600 miles. EPMaritn has provided the team the Sahara Expedition Chronograph in support of the quest.
