One more race is over, and as always it was magical and beautiful and so inspiring. Congratulations to all runners and helpers and organizers and big gratitude to all for making Supreme so happy and proud.
Big, big thank you Utpal for wonderful work you are doing. It brings so much to us.
Looking forward to 3100! 🙂
Thanks Uptal!
Your drone views should win you an Oscar in cinematography! And your wonderful coverage of this remarkable event should be good enough for the Pulitzer in online journalism( an actual category)
Thank you Utpal for your great inspiring work -:)
And thanks to all runners für their amazing performance for the whole world -:)
Heroes all – putting it out into the universe: self-transcendence is alive and well, and ever-growing~
Thank you to everyone for the amazing oneness and inspiration.
Inspiring as always… and transcending that even every year!! Gratitude for all your hard (heart) work in keeping us connected with this wonderful event. Thank you!!!
As always – top drawer coverage of inspiring people digging deep. Thank you for all your great work in sharing this event, because of this, others will become inspired. ….
Dear Utpal,
During the race as a runner, today as a passionate reader and listener, with awe, I watched all the videos, looked at all the photos – what a most wonderful job, or more so a piece of art I should say, you have created… for all your dedication, I thank you. Instead of 6 days, in a number of hours I managed to live it again – what a wonderful journey! To all orginizers, runners, helpers, to you Utpal, I thank you!
Thank you, thank you, thank you to all who made this race again a unique experience for near and far: race-directors, helpers in any field, runners,.. and Utpal for bringing the race close to us. Us, who could not be there physically. What an heroic event! How much light and gratitude was born again in these special, special 10 days!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!
Thank you very much!
