CHARLIE AND TEAM MATES WIN THE GOBI MARCH!

All of us here at "Charlie Central" are really proud of Team Chunghwa Telecom/MAGO. Charlie, Ray Zahab of Canada and Kevin Lin of Taiwan, won the 250 km Ultra Marathon that took place last week in China's Gobi Desert. In the team category, Charlie, Ray and Kevin were some 9 hours plus ahead of any other team competing, in fact, their time was so good, they beat many of the singles runners.

The Gobi March is one of the 4 Deserts Races (each 250km) in the "Racing the Planet" ultra running series. (Check out www.racingtheplanet.com) There are some great pictures and articles on the race.

Stay tuned to the blog, Charlie and Ray are going to Badwater to run in July. Then in September the team will make HISTORY as they run the Sahara Desert. No one has ever attempted this before and we are all very excited about this event. We will be posting everyday about the trials and tribulations Charlie, Ray and Kevin will face running coast to coast in Africa.

Congrats Team Chunghwa/MAGO!!

stay tuned.........
