Andrea Marcato, the 41 year old Italian who has dominated the previous three versions of the Sri Chinmoy 3100 Mile Race, passed the 1000 mile mark in a personal best of 13 Days+07:12:25, the tenth best performance on a road course in long-distance history.
He passed his own best by nearly nine hours and seemed ready to continue his efforts as there are still 2,100 miles to be covered before his efforts will be complete. Tomorrow, on Wednesday, the Taiwanese woman Tsai Wen-Ya, currently in second overall, should finish her first 1000 Mile performance. We will see another great performance in the world's longest race, although there may be more rain showers on Wednesday morning from 6:00 a.m. to midday. We shall see. Wen-Ya has 33.5 miles to reach the 1000 mile mark.
