Day 34


Archived – click Post Title to view all. 34th day. 6.40 pm. Today I have received some letters which made me think. O, my God, what is happening here? People have been running for more than a month, are not dying, stay happy and look better and better. Indeed, what is going on here? How is it possible to run so long – more than 100 km every day? I have told about it before. Maybe after the race I will share the bewilderment of the people who do not run 3100 and will also think that it is a fantastic, unreal thing to do and totally beyond human capacity. But now, thank God, I am running. I am in the state of flow, and everything seems to be very natural and very easy. I would like to reveal something: when your mind really calms down and takes a backseat, the spiritual heart and the soul get unhindered access to manifest their power through the physical body. In our case, it is through legs. And really from inside it comes naturally, without efforts. When you have a fine day, everything seems quite usual. My 65 miles (106 km) a day are a regular ability. Five hours or less of sleep is enough for restoring and it is quite regular things. Several breaks for 15 minutes are enough to get rest. Then in your usual life you are puzzled – what is possible to be do in 15 minutes? As it happens, you can do very many things. For example, to…

Joke of the day 33


Shtirlits was walking along the forest. Somebody was pecking the wood. “Woodpecker”, thought Shtirlits. “You yourself are a woodpecker”, thought Borman.

Day 33


33d day. It is 1.30 pm. A few laps before I have done 2000 miles. 32days+7hours. It seems like 5 hours faster then first thousand this year. I found that I was 17miles ahead of my last year schedule. It means that everything is going well. Volodya and I are running together now. In the morning he caught up with me and since then half of this day we’ve been running together. This morning was, let me say, sleepy, like somebody “pressed us down”. We were joking that we had a sleepy time while running. Volodya even had to drink some coffee and I remembered about an herbal pill that Pranab had given me a year ago right for cases like that. Anyway, we got some boost. Then we burst out laughing at a joke about woodpecker, and everything was back in its place. Our speed now is pretty much ok.

As it turned out, we were 1 lap slower, then yesterday, when I had 66 miles, Volodya had his traditional 67 miles. It means that everything is fine, the flight is normal. One more thing is worth mentioning. Volodya did his first 2000 miles yesterday, and not too much is still left. Volodya is smiling now. Anecdote of the day: Shtirlits was walking along the forest. Somebody was pecking the wood. “Woodpecker”, thought Shtirlits. “You yourself are a woodpecker”, thought Borman.

Day 31


Archived – click Post Title to view all. Day, 31. Some minutes after 7 pm. The flight is super stable. The last few days, I have even increased my speed and I feel so good. Yesterday I did 65 miles. I feel a great potential. So, the most interesting things are ahead. Ashprihanal’s running is getting better and better. It has stabilized now. Let us say, he has recovered from the shock and left that experience behind. Pavol is doing great! Step by step, he is getting better also. And there is a big hope that he will finish before Shuprabha. Pradan has been guiding me since 2004. I pick up all my vitamins following his recommendations and they work 100 %. We have a kind of test question. He asks me, “How much?” I have to give him a figure on the scale from 1 to one hundred to describe my condition. Yesterday, when he showed up I said,”97!” Pradan said,”Ok, it means that it’s time for me to go back home to Chicago”. I answered, “ Pradan, may be you need some help?” The following story could suit a black humor column. All these years, there have been two dry trees on the route side. Today workers came and cut them very quickly. There were no problems with the first tree. We ran by it quickly. But it was quite interesting with the second one. Volodya and me passed it by, but behind us was Purna-Samarpan. I noticed that they had almost stubbed it, and it looked…
