Day 12
Today was a perfect day- all five runners went above the needed average.
The weather was a little cool in the morning, sunny and hot at midday and the afternoon, but cool at night.
Many thanks to the city council and the park commission!
Priyavadini called them this morning and asked if they could kindly clean the course for the runners.
Clean out the stones, leaves, grass etc... from the road.
They said they will make it. The very nice thing was that they cleaned it right away, in the next two hours it was done.
Ananda-Lahari and Ushika were in the seventh heaven of delight. Ushika said it was a divinization of the course.
Ananda-Lahari showed us once more how he can fly. After having a day of walking yesterday he covered today 117,9 km to win the day. Bravo !
Andrea was not much slower and closed at midnight (10 min after Ananda-Lahari) with 115,8 km.
Bellissimo !
Nirbhasa in usual manner closed at 23:34 with 108,5 km. Perfetto !
Ushika ran until midnight, and although he sometimes had to go quite slow, he covered 100 km for the first time since Day 1. Incredible !
Milan seems to have a full resurrection and, although he again had to face extreme fatigue, he brought it up to 97 km. Way to go !

Splits
Milan Javornicky- 1000km-11days+02:02:54-his first 1000km, and- 1086.46km/ 674.72 miles- his most ever run in a multi day event
Ushika -94.452km/ 58.68miles per day- he is 18km behind pace but narrowing the gap
Ananda-Lahari Zuscin- with his two days in the last four at 75.6 and 73. Miles, he has reached even par for the race. No surprise. Ananda-Lahari is a special runner, and all-time great.
Nirbhasa is averaging 104.02 km / 64.63 miles per day. He is slightly ahead of his best 3100 mile performance from 2019. Great effort so far.
Andrea Marcato has run over 70 miles in eight of the 12 days of the Race. He is averaging 112.716 km / 70.04 miles per day. In the 23 -year history of the 3100 Mile Race, only five men have been able to average 70 miles/112.7 kms per day for the duration. Watching him on the webcam, his running is smooth and efficient. Wonderful to see a new face starting to approach his potential in a super-long multi-day.
More later folks
