Is there a route map available?
Local knowledge an advantage at all?
Pah! Only 60 miles a day for 52 days and no hills.
Prizes?????????
Going to try again....
Surely only people with a lot to prove would undertake such a mentally grueling task.
Does that mean the 99.9% of us who would never even think about doing the race are actually closer to self-transcendence than those who would?
Yes, especially if you live in the Cheshire mountains and are related to the new Chief Secretary to the Treasury.
One for next year?
That's the trouble with the folk on this Forum..... nee ambition
From the website - "53-year-old Suprabha Beckjord reached the improbable milestone of 13 finishes of the Self-Transcendence 3100 mile race, completing the distance in 60 days+08:58:51.She was the final finisher of this year’s event. Her journeys in the last baker’s dozen of extreme multidays has brought her nearly twice around the world( 40,302.226 miles/ 64,622.160 km) while remaining in the confines of a .5488 mile loop around a city parkland and vocational high school sidewalks."
