JM 2008
Widi 2007 winnerDon't ever get tired of JM.
2008 VERSION WILL BE AWESOME!!!!
WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE!!!!!!!!!
JM2008
Competitors from around the globe will once again battle it out on tracks and trails through the Amazon Jungle in Brazil. In 2008, competitors will have the choice of two distances: 200km or 100km, which will be completed in stages throughout the week. The longer distance will include six stages and the shorter will include four. Those of you choosing the 100km distance will continue to experience the jungle environment until the finish of the 200km race and will then attend the prize giving and race wrap party.
Competitors in all distances are required to be self-sufficient from their arrival in Brazil until the finish lunch at the end of the 200km stage. Runners are required to carry their foods and provisions during the race and we will provide them with bottled water at designated checkpoints.
The Jungle Marathon will take place in the Tapajos National Forest, a 600 thousand hectares of preotected Rainforest in Santarem Brazil, in October 2008. Due to the isolated location and extreme conditions of this race, places are limited. Be a part of this incredible adventure.

Jungle Marathon 2008
I was just visited by Shirley Thompson, the idealiser of Jungle Marathon.
I have great admiration for her as a woman of attitude and as a transparent friend.
The jungle Marathon is an amazing event in the heart of Brazilian Amazon in which local communities are truly involved and benefited and participants from all over the world have a chance to learn about the Tapajos National Forest and its people plus run the wildest marathon in the world.
I was the photographer and interpreter from last year's version. I am happy to know that some of the runners are returning again, an evidence that the competition is quite terrific, and the 2008 version will ceratainly be much much better. I am sure everyone will be much more fitted.
Jungle Marathon 2008
The Jungle Marathon is a stage race that takes place in annually in the Floresta National de Tapajos, in the Amazon Jungle in Brazil. Approximately 75 competitors take part in the event each year, from around the world. There are two options of distances for the competitors to take part in, either 200kms over 6 stages, or 100kms over 4 stages... the highlight of the longer distance is 'the long stage', which is 80kms and has a time limit of 35 hours!
The runners will be self sufficient, carrying all food and provisions for the duration of the race. Bottled water will be supplied at designated checkpoints. Nights will be spent sleeping in hammocks along the shores of the Tapajos river. All competitors will be required to provide their own hammocks (which should include a mosquito net and rain fly sheet).
The course route will follow pre-existing paths, tracks and trails through primary jungle. There will be natural obstacles to pass including streams and shallow rivers. The route will be marked using coloured tape, paint markings and the use of landmarks. Each competitor will be supplied with a route book, and should be able to navigate. There will be a night stage, which should be illuminated. Distances for each stage range between 13 and 80 kilometres.

ZADOQUE LOPES...
was one of my dearest school-mates at Dom Amando School. Today I am his greatest admirer. Frankly speaking I have always seen him with much affection and admiration. He comes from a humble family and right after he graduated from High School he moved to Sao Paulo for learning Russian and studying Theatre. A few years later he directed Marilia Pera in Brazil and in London.
Currently he working at SBK Productions of Sir Ben Kinsgley, known for performances in Schindler's List and Gandhi amongst others.
He is directing with Powell Jones Eça de Queiroz's Cousin Basilio well-studied and reccomended by our literature teacher at Dom Amando. Here is one of his recent photographs, London is doing him good!!
Congratulations mate!!!!

Verdura de Leminski
De repente me lembro do verde
Da cor verde a mais verde que existe
A cor mais alegre, a cor mais triste
Verde que veste, verde que vestiste
No dia em que te vi
No dia em que me viste
De repente vendi meus filhos
Pra uma família americana
Eles tem carro, eles tem grana
Eles tem casa e a grama é bacana
Só assim eles podem voltar
E pegar um sol em copacabana
Pegar um sol em copacabana
Paulo Leminski-Valentin Wawzyniak
Tambem meio polaco como ValentinWawzyniak e como Valentin Brasileiro tambem, este todo caboco, meio de Curitiba.Maica by mocorongas.nl
