3100 Mile Race - 2023
The 27th annual Sri Chinmoy Self-Transcendence Race 3100 Mile Race began on 30 August and will run for 52 days until it finishes on 20 October. This year fourteen runners took to the start line to take part in the ultimate test of ultra-distance running.
The race was founded by Sri Chinmoy, a keen runner himself, who felt there was a strong connection between both physical and spiritual self-transcendence. As the runners testify, this is a race which brings to the fore all their inner reserves and determination; it can be life-transforming experience for both the runners and helpers.
The race is promoted by the Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team and a support team of volunteers from around the world.
To get an insight into the race, some of the runners were interviewed whilst running around the course.
