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.
Andrea Marcato dominates the 3100 Mile Race for the Fifth time. The Italian runner ran his second fastest run in the group in a sparkling time of 43:03:04:06. The five straight consecutive victories is an event record. This was the 28th Sri Chinmoy Self-Transcendence 3100 Mile Race. Andrea averaged 71.83 miles per day/ 115.68 km.
There will most likely be six more finishers until the 52-day ends on October 20. After a one-hour celebration, Andrea ran 14 extra laps to reach the 5000km mark, which is an option of his own choice. It took him 43:05:25:15.
Ashprihanal Aalto reached 3000 miles in 43:01:21:59 this morning, and ran to get over 66.9 miles throughout the day. He needs only 39 miles to finish second in the 3100 Mile Race on Sunday. He will finish the 3100 Mile Race tomorrow in the late afternoon. He will total Seventeen 3100 Mile Races, including Nine First places, and the coveted fastest 3100 Mile Race from 2015 (40:09:06:21). Third place runner Wei-Ming Lo from Taiwan ran 4800km in 43:16:24:38. Wei-Ming is hoping to finish his race on Monday. Grahak Cunningham reached 2200 miles in 42:14:43:52
