Many many thanks for all those who have sent us cheques.

9/11/2011

We have now returned home, having managed to complete the 1000 km Mongol Derby in nine days, nearly killing ourselves in the process! It was MUCH tougher than we anticipated and we were extremely lucky on several occasions; several of our competitors had to drop out after sustaining broken bones, dehydration, sunstroke or lost horses. One even suffered an amputated thumb.

It was, at all times, only the conviction that we could not let down all those who have supported us so magnificently that kept us going. I am delighted to say that we have so far raised over £60,000, so it was all worthwhile.

I can reassure you that we will never undertake anything remotely similar again.

Owen and Rose Paterson
