Mongolia Day 1
The girls’ team and presenter Camille Ucan are in Mongolia, being introduced to the nomadic way of life and seeing their legendary horseback skills for themselves.
The girls’ team of sprinter Alesha, boxer Jocelyn and show jumper and runner Neisha are in Mongolia, the land of the horse, to learn the sporting skills of the Mongolia nomads: archery, lassoing and horse riding. At the end of the week, they will compete against the locals in an epic race that involves all three disciplines.
Led by presenter Camille Ucan, their first action-packed day involves an awe-inspiring introduction to all three skills, performed by their head coach, local horse training legend Geser.
Geser then introduces them to their hosts for the week, a nomadic family living in the remote plains of Mongolia. Here, they will be sleeping in a tent called a ger and using a hole in the ground for the toilet. They are then matched with the semi-wild horses they will be riding all week, before going for their first ride. Finally, they experience a traditional welcome meal of the nomads – sheep’s head!
