The band of thirteen continued on in the 3100 Mile Race despite heavy rains in the morning and strong squalls in the afternoon. Asprihanal Aalto led the way with 66.4 miles, closely followed by Pushkar Mullauer and Petr Spacil. Grahak Cunningham moved from eighth place to fourth with a workmanlike 62.01 miles. Suprabha Beckjord moved from 11th to ninth as well, as the younger runners slipped a little as the rains pummeled the course.
