You are an amazing team -- completed a 7 day and 250 Km punishing race in Gobi… That’s not all. This is really about raising UP awareness, bringing the focus on the rural China especially in the remote western China, and raising funds for Save The Children’s Sichuan earthquake relief efforts. I admire and appreciate what you are doing -- very inspirational indeed! MS is truly a great company with so many caring people.

Congratulations, words escape me and don’t seem adequate to
describe the monumental crossing you have just made. Emotion charges my
soul while reading the messages of love and support you
have all received. Each one describing
how proud and touched they feel. You have all touched so many lives and your determination
is inspirational. I am going to miss my
daily fix of the excitement it has given me and my family. William you will never be the same person for
undertaking such an event, you have to share the experience with us all
soon. Love you lots cath and the family.

Hey bro, it is always that way in live "“Out there when you are walking, it is 40% in the legs and arms and the remaining 60% is in the head – after running the race though, I have realised that it was perhaps even more in the head, because you just have to keep going"..Well said. Sharing experiences and thoughts like that is why we, as your family, are so proud of you. Keep up the courage, attitude and good mood. Kudos to Debbie and William as well for being as passionate as you and such a extraordinary team mates.....Ya estan el otro lado , sin duda.
Un abrazo

Hola Orlando, Debby, William, and the support team out there!
The last thing I think of at night is the three of you - and I wonder how you did that day; and the first thing I think of in the morning is the three of you - and how you did that day...
