June 30: Do All That I Can
Things have been getting hotter here for the past few days and it is not the weather. There is a new and exciting level of intensity that has been slowly building amongst the top 3 runners. You can clearly see it on their lap sheets, with each day bearing a staggering new total. It is […]

June 29: A Dream of the Supreme for Humanity
Quite often great moments in sports are captured by film crews and news reporters and are then shown on evening news programs or are splashed across sports sections of local news papers. If you score a goal, win a match, or set a record at something there is a pretty good chance somebody will be […]

June 28: Every Day I Will Give Everything
I hoped to continue my detective work at the race this morning. The burning question that continued to vex me, was how all the runners could somehow improve from Day 14 to Day 15 Sunday. I had no plan on using any third degree questioning in my sleuthing, because after all something quite remarkable had […]

June 27: To Be More Happy
Something happened yesterday that cannot be explained. On Sunday, 9 out of the 10 runners ran more laps than they had the day before. The only one who didn’t run more laps on Sunday was Surasa ,who ran exactly 110 laps the same as she has run every day for the past week. What make […]

June 26: Wisdom Comes With Years
I try my best most days to get it right. To somehow with my reporting to capture the distinct mood and perhaps, dare I say it, consciousness of each day. Things can, and often do, change rapidly. As an early morning person as well I generally only get to observe a very unique and tiny […]

June 25: Keep Trying
“I had a really good experience of flowing.” It has been pretty obvious for the past few days that Sarvagata is having an extraordinarily good start to his 3100 mile adventure. Yesterday he ran 130 laps which was the most of any of the other runners. But it is not just the numbers that tell […]

June 24: Go Beyond Everything
There are for me many times when I wonder what it would be like to actually do the Self Transcendence 3100 mile race myself. It is an absurd if not even crazy question but still it is one that forces me to examine more seriously just what I am doing with my own life. Part […]

June 23: Just Smile and be Happy
I think I know what draws me out of bed before dawn each day and come to the race. Over the years it has become ever more clearer to me that I can receive and experience something here that is available for just 52 days, and only right here. As the race enters its 12th […]

June 22: There Is Some Purpose
“It is very nice, I am already there, I am beyond.” For Sarvagata a new milestone will tumble by the wayside with each new step he takes as he continues to circle the course. He, like the other 2 new runners, up until today had never run in a race longer than 10 days. For […]

June 21: A Sweet Memory
Everything always moves along so incredibly swiftly here at the Self Transcendence race. There rarely seems to be much time or opportunity to look back over your shoulder. If one did it too often you could easily trip over the present. It is challenging at the best of times to even just attempt to keep […]
