Day 42; Six Weeks Passed

The runners showed their wares today, at least for this day, since the human body and mind can be and are fragile throughout their existence in this earthly frame. Vasu Duzhiy reminded us that he is a great runner, one of the five fastest all-time for 3100 miles, as he pushed to 72.44 miles for Day leadership. Nirbhasa Magee reached 68.6 miles, a good indicator of his full return to excellence. First placer Ashprihanal Aalto commenced with a solid 65.8 miles, including passing the 2700 mile split for the 15thtime in his career, while reminding us, perhaps, of the only Sri Chinmoy 2700 Mile Race in 1996, which preceded the 3100. The great performances today in summer conditions did not have to trickle down, as seven of eight ran past the minimum 109 laps. Ten days remain.
