Day 8, September 6

By Tejvan Pettinger author bio »
7 September

About the author:

Tejvan organises short-distance running and cycling races for the Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team in his home city of Oxford. He is also a very good cyclist, having won the National hill climb championships in 2013 and finished 3rd in the National 100 Mile Time Trials in 2014.

The very warm and inhuman weather today tried to slow everyone down, but the strong and remarkable runners continued their quest to challenge all things in front of them.  Whether it was distance to conquer, the stiff sidewalks to tread, the food and drink to be absorbed , and the need for the body to stop and relax when anything too long is more trouble to overcome. 93º to 95º temps all over the area around the slightly longer than half a mile, with traffic and trucks rolling by on the north side of the course - these things are just part of the distraction that is the 3100 Mile Race. Not to mention the course changes direction every day.

Andrea Marcato passes 600 miles

The Day 8 Race resulted in several runners continuing their best available efforts. The overall leader Andrea Marcato reached  614.2 miles to extend his lead to nearly 50 miles over Tsai Wen-Ya who continued to lead the women with 564.8 miles. Wei-Ming Lo remained solid in third place, reaching 517.8 miles. Mahasatya Janczak held fourth place with 506.7 miles. Vasu Duzhiy and Adrian Papuc held fourth and fifth with 502 miles and inches apart from each other.  With one more hot day, the runners have nearly overcome the first test. We will see how they will shine - inside and outside.

Day 7, September 5, 2023

The summer season is still touching the New York area with intense heat, and the possibility of hurricanes pushing up the coast, if the worse things might happen. However, the super-long distance runners are just taking one day at a time.

Andrea Marcato,  Italy’s hero, and Taiwan’s new distance speedster Tsai Wen-Ya retained their first and second places. No surprise in third overall, in 92º heat, Wei-Ming Lo moved in the common position, reaching 68 miles and smiling over his movement through the heat.  

Mahasatya Janczak from Poland and Adrian Papuc from Romania held their fourth and fifth positions and seemed smooth throughout the boiling afternoon heat.          

Tomorrow supposedly will be very hot, with temps moving towards 95º and more difficulties. After the two approaching heat days, cooler temps and rain will replace the mid-summer tests.
