Nikolko, congratulations on your amazing success in the big challenge in Namibia! This is truly a tremendous feat that you and your team have achieved.

Your families and friends have reason to be proud of you. Your accomplishments take you to a new level and show that with hard work and dedication you can achieve anything you set your mind to.
Now is the time to enjoy some well-deserved moments of joy, relaxation and admiration. Remember to give yourself a break and appreciate all these wonderful moments. You have had an incredible challenge and now you can look forward to memories that will follow you for a lifetime.

Congratulations everyone on completing IN NAM! What an incredible achievement. I hope that you had the best time and now are able to relax! Alexa - all of us in the team are so proud of you for having less than a month prep for IN NAM and to complete it is insane! I would say have a nice time break to relax but I miss my Energy Station buddy and it's time to recruit IN NAM '24!! Well done everyone, make sure you enjoy the next couple of days :)

All of us, and especially Sophie, are already looking forward to your return. Sophie and myself did catch a virus from the nephews last weekend, but so far dad is suffering way more than Sophie is :)

Hi Kerry,

I can’t believe you’re entering the final day of your challenge. Only a 21km run and 81km cycle to go -
Should be easy enough for an athlete like you! I’m sure the thought of the luxury camp at the end will help you get through the last part of your journey. Juno and I will be cheering you on as you head towards the finish line!

Best of luck and speak to you soon.

Lots of love

You only have one more challenge left! One. More. Left!!! It’s crazy to think you’ve made it this far. But when we think about how determined and focused you are, it’s no surprise at all! We are incredibly proud of you and can’t wait to see you next month (oh yeah, we’re coming for Father’s Day 😂). You’ve made it so far and are just about at the finish line. Keep grinding but remember to make memories you’ll remember forever.

What’s up Donnie, heard you needed some motivation, so figured I’d remind you about the time you lost in a scramble in Caldwell to me, Nick, Jake, and I believe Max. Nothing you’re experiencing now can touch what you felt that day, so dig deep and keep on pushing. Proud of you bud and excited for the physical and mental growth you’re going to take away from this!

Sabemos que habrá muchos eventos que dejarán huella en tu vida pero para este momento ya debes de saber, sobre todo de sentir por el esfuerzo que estás haciendo, que ésta será una de las grandes experiencias que marcarán positivamente tu vida. Sabemos que debe ser extenuante pero no desmayes en tu esfuerzo porque la satisfacción de haberlo logrado quedará grabada en tu corazón como una meta que te pusiste y que esperamos sea un inolvidable recordatorio de que todo lo que te propongas lo puedes conseguir si no cejas en tu esfuerzo, aunque en realidad siempre has sido así, por lo que te admiramos y nos sentimos muy orgullosos de cada uno de tus logros. Disfruta cada momento al máximo y dale gracias a Dios por la experiencia. Tu papá y yo no dejamos de pedirle que te de fortaleza y como siempre te mandamos todo nuestro amor. PS - Wasabi se está portando muy bien; te extraña … y te manda buenas vibras. Besos de papá y mamá.. y un beso mordelón de Wasabi ♥️♥️♥️♥️

I know you said one message was enough, but after climbing up that mountain you must surely have quite a few blisters, and I feel it’s my duty to remind you to wash your hands before you pop them. And stay away from other people’s blisters, for god’s sake.
Hope this message was helpful. I’m 99% sure you’re doing great, so keep going!!

To Jaro:

Hi baby,

Hope you had a great time so far & that you made it successfully to the top of the Brandberg (and back preferably ;)) - can’t wait to hear all about it and to see the pictures.

Wanted to wish you the best of luck with the 42km tomorrow - you got this!

Enjoy the last few days!!

Fergus,

You’ve made it over half way! Keep powering on through the inevitable sunburn and the finger injury which might be holding you back…
I’m so proud of all the hard work you’ve put into this and can’t wait to hear all about it when you’re back. Everyone is cheering you on!
Missing you (although quite enjoying the house being kept tidy!).

Lots of love,

Fellow junkyard dawgs #woofwoofwoof , pond jumpers & friends! What a group!
Congrats! Y’all have made it through day 4, you’ve already braved two days in the sand and made it up and down the Brandberg! A huge feat in itself, be proud, give each other a pat on the back and know you’re almost there. Take it a day at a time and enjoy the remaining miles and views! You all can do it and we are looking forward to your stories! There’s beer waiting for you at the end and it’s (mostly?) downhill from here. However, remember that there are special rules in the desert, what goes down, must go back up! Enjoy the final days and lean on each other! What a trip and what a group! #woofwoofwoof

You are an absolute champion and very proud of you pal.

For when the going gets tough, a little excerpt to help:

“I can't see a way through said the boy.

Can you see your next step?

Yes.

Just take that said the horse.”

One foot in front of the other Stug, that's all we can ask.

A short greeting from Dormagen to Namibia. I hope you're doing well and your sore muscles aren't that bad. You've done half of it now!! You already got the Football news from Kristina. Bayern did it again, Cologne lost.
Continue to have a good time on this great adventure. We are thinking of you and a lot of strength for the last few days. You can do it.

Estás en nuestro pensamiento y corazón. Ayer fuimos a almorzar con Kennedy y estuvimos recordando cuando eras chiquito. Queremos que sepas que nos sentimos muy orgullosos de ti y que sabemos que en este momento estás haciendo un gran esfuerzo pero sabemos que vas a cumplir tu meta y ese momento lo vas a recordar por siempre y no olvides que te amamos y esperamos tu regreso. El día 23 te mandé un mensaje. Lo vas a encontrar si buscas un corazón al final. ♥️♥️♥️

Hii Day,

I hope you are okay ... I can imagine it's been a tough couple of days but I bet the reward of self achievement at the end of each day is worth it!

Luke's been to Croxteth park today with your Mum and Liam on his scooter, obviously he got an ice cream. When your Dad picked him up he said 'Mummy's going to work to see Daddy' haha. He's staying in your mums tonight so I will be having a nice Port with my feet up enjoying the peace. Sorry to rub it in.

We miss you so so much, however the house is much quieter and cleaner with you there 😆

We love you Day and I can't say it enough we are so so proud of you.
Keep going babe, see you soon.

Look at you being your best self during your 10 out of 10 life experience. Definitely different than our 10 out of 10 McDonald’s adventure with Carson. Lol Day two and shinning (probably with sweat Lol) but mostly with pride and satisfaction of doing your very best. I love you deeply and can’t wait to hear all about this magnificent adventure. You got this! Til tomorrow know we are right there beside you in spirit the whole way. Love, Mom

Hi group 3,
You have just broken in your legs and you are looking at a massive mountain while fending off scorpions and snakes.

Angry baboons and pesky bees are waiting for you up there - be careful.

You will go through this baptism of fire and forge unique relationships. Look out for one another - united we stand, divided we fall!

Tough times never last, only tough people last.

Good evening Aaron

Day 3. God, in the true thick of the trip! Yesterday we are sure was brutal. We bet your whole body is yelling at you saying "Are you crazy!" But you are not. You have been training your body for this time. Keep moving forward one step or pedal at a time. The only failures are the ones that stop trying! We hope your hike brought you great views during the day as well as during the night. We know you are tired BUT TAKE LOTS OF PICS! As you get older you be able to remind your brain you did this lol. Nothing we saw in all the national and state parks we hiked will compare we are sure! Hope you are putting on sunscreen! Always your biggest cheerleaders! YOU ARE KILLING IT AARON! GOOOO AARON! ON THE OTHER SIDE!
Love always

I’m sure your legs are probably feeling like spaghetti by now, but hopefully you can get some solid rest tonight for the downhill battle tomorrow! Your perseverance, endurance, and mental toughness is inspiring! You are inspiring! Keep on keeping on! You’re doing great and best of luck tomorrow! Sending prayers and cheering big for you!

the half is done! I am incredibly proud of you! Your diligence, your stamina and all the efforts of the last months have definitely paid off. I am sure you will master the challenge with flying colors! I am really looking forward to our trip afterwards, my bags are as good as packed!

Here are the most important news you asked for: The transfer ban for 1. FC Köln is temporarily suspended, the game Köln vs. Bayern ended 1:2 and Bayern is unfortunately once again German Champion because Dortmund played in a draw. Schalke is relegated and Stuttgart is in the relegation.

I send you a lot of energy for the last two very demanding days!

Hi zlaticko :-*

I hope your first full day in Namibia has been full of new impressions, fun and an ‘acceptable’ amount of physical effort. On the home front Sophie, my parents and myself are slowly adjusting to the new situation without mommy present. I am constantly reminded of you, with Sophie being as strong and fearless as her mom. It doesn’t matter how many attempts it takes, when she sets her mind to it, she will pull herself up to a standing position, be it via the couch, the table, the chair or my legs, it doesn’t matter. The occasional fall backwards, irregardless of what might be there, has been a true test for our reflexes, but she is gradually more capable of sitting down slowly herself. Today older cousin Lukas was also present and their interaction was just adorable. Sophie was monitoring every move Lukas made and Lukas was even willing to share his favorite stuffed animal with Sophie, which is apparently a first!

Daddy - that’s me - and Sophie are cheering for you. Take care of yourself and enjoy the experience as much as you can!

Love,
Steven

it is not easy to accept and face such a challenge, which the challenge of Namibia undoubtedly is. Despite the fact that you only brought your daughter into the world eight months ago, you did not give up and persisted in your goal. Your tireless efforts, perseverance, dedication and determination are an inspiration to us all. We are proud of you. Now just enjoy and fight, our heroine!

You made it to Namibia and overcame the preparation and the arrival odyssey – that is already a huge accomplishment!
This crazy journey will go by so quickly, so remember to take it all in: The unique and memorable experiences, the support, the extraordinary landscape, the camp, the laughs, the pain, the suffering… Everything will be worth the trouble!

He is missing you so much he keeps knocking on the bathroom door shouting you haha.
