Self-Transcendence 3100 Mile Race

Funny stories. There is one “swami” here (we call him so) doing his everyday jogging. He always wears an orange T-shirt and orange shorts. He tries to compete with us! It is not normal. He runs in the same direction and he tries to leave us behind. Then another person came and began to compete too. So, I had to put things in their proper order. This “pedagogical” lap I ran for 4.32. My usual time for one lap is 7.30. They do not realize that we are already trained very well. Our training has lasted for 46 days from morning and till night. So they should not mess with us. It is dangerous :-))))

46th day, 7.40am In a few hours Petya is going to finish, and he is improving his time by three and a half days. Yesterday, when Grahak finished the race, he set a new Australian record; besides, he set his personal record which was two day better then his previous one. Grahak became number three in rating of the 3100 miles race. Madhupran, Ashprihanal and then Grahak. Super! Just super! Taking into account that it is his third race and he did not have any experience of multiday races before this 3100. This morning we all were surprised. We saw Suprabha again at the starting line. Perhaps she was overwhelmed with emotions being at the celebration of the Grahak finish yesterday. It is a very special feeling when somebody finishes. So, she is running today. Not so fast, but she is running. So, never say “never”! Yesterday I had a good day. One more time 69 miles. Of course, by evening my legs are no so light like it was a month ago. I have to work hard. And even very hard. But when at the last moment you do one more lap, you are just overwhelmed with satisfaction which comes from self-transcendence. It is just a flight. Just super! Yesterday I went to bed at quarter to twelve, but a few more days left. So, it’s OK.
