On a sticky, hot, humid Father’s Day in New York, the band of 11 Gypsies known as the Self-Transcendence 3100 Mile Race continued along their journey. Petr Spacil led all boats to the shore with 69.14 miles, pulling within 2 laps of the overall leader Asprihanal Aalto, who plodded along with 66.4 miles. Stutisheel Lebedyev moved into fifth place with 65.85 miles. The tough conditions will persist a few more days, but with less humidity. Still, six men made it past sixty miles. It was so sticky today that the handball tournament nearby was shortened a few hours. Wimps!
