Day 29 - 3100 Mile Race

page created by admin — last modified 2006-09-07 06:39 PM

Arpan DeAngelo led the way today with 65.85 miles, as his mileage resurgence is due to healthier shins and a stone-willed determnination. Ashprihanal Aalto passed the 2000 mile mark for the fourth time in his remarkable career(28 days +12:30:55), becoming the second fastest alltime at the distance.

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 New York Weather gods brought rain to the 3,100-mile race today. A light drizzle in the early morning became steady rain by lunchtime. It didn't seem to dampen the spirits of the runners who keep progressing onwards. Two more of our runners reached the 2,000-mile barrier today.

Wei-Ming, in 29 days and 7 Hours exactly, still holds third place and
Pushkar in 29 days, 11 Hours, 25 minutes and 25 Seconds. Still, hold forth

Andrea Marcato continues to lead the way. He went through 3,500km in 29 days, 15 Hours, 28 Minutes and 49 Seconds to finish the day on 2,184.3 Miles.

Ashprihanal Aalto after going through 3,300 km early in the morning in 29 days 00 Hours 41 Minutes, 12 Seconds. Finished the day on 2117.3 Miles

Our trio vying for 5th, 6th and 7th position all went through 3,100 Km throughout the day.

Vasu in 29 Days, 03 Hours, 19 Minutes and 31Seconds.
Radu in 29 Days, 04 Hours, 59 Minutes and 09 Seconds.
Budjargal in 29 Days. 07 Hours, 55 Minutes, 18 Seconds.

The nature of all multi-day races but especially the 3,100-mile race is that one minor niggle, or blister can affect a whole couple of days with reduced mileage. Meaning positions can change very quickly. Budjargal, after three days in succession of 79.5 Miles, 70.2 Miles and a stellar 82.8 Miles, seemed to struggle in the morning but was strong again in the evening. He was well done on his 80+ mile clocking from yesterday. The wisdom of aiming for an even pace holds in this race as much as in a marathon. Any increase in pace, although giving short-term gains, can be neutralised in minutes as the body pays the price for over-exuberance.

Annabel Hepworth reached 3,000 km in 29 days, 15 Hours, 42 Minutes, 22 Seconds.

More milestones were reached by

Stutisheel who went through 2,400Km in 29 days. 11 Hours 26 Minutes, 34 Seconds. And 1500 Miles in 29 Days, 15 Hours, 30 Minutes, 16 Seconds.
Ananda Lahari 1400 miles in 29 days. 11Hours 48Minutes, 11 Seconds. Nina reached 2,000km in 29 Days, 15 Hours, 26 minutes and 48 Seconds.

Another overcast morning greeted the runners at the 3100-mile race, making for good running conditions. Budjargal Byamba again had the highest daily total, with 82.8 Miles. After his impressive start to the race, followed by injury issues, he has slowly grown stronger again, and this was his third straight day over 70 miles. He reached the landmark of 3,000 kilometres in 28 Days,10 Hours, 19 minutes and 45 seconds.

Behind him, Andrea Marcato maintained the race lead, ending the day with 2113 Miles Miles after logging up 68.5 Miles for the day. He passed 2,100 miles in 28 Days, 14 Hours, 36 minutes and 85 seconds. He remains 60 miles ahead of Ashprihanal Aalto.

The Flying Finn became the second runner to reach 2,000 miles in this year's race, recording 28 Days 4 Hours, 37 Minutes and 53 Seconds. It is the 17th time he has reached this milestone in his running career, and he is still comfortably in second place.

Lo Wei-Ming continued his relentless forward progress, going through 3,100 km in 28 Days, 5 hours, 35 minutes and 51 seconds on his way to logging 68.5 Miles for the day. He remains in third place, though Puskar Mullauer finished the day only 16 miles behind him on 1,955 Miles to stay fourth.
