Day 38:The Essence of Running

The day dawned a little cooler than previous days and inspiration seemed more readily available.Our band of 12 runners have been giving it their all since the first day, and with only two weeks remaining, running is still their language and their conviction. There is no turning back. Vasu Duzhiy was day leader with 64.75 miles; he was closely followed by Pranjal Milovnik(62.5) and Ashprihanal Aalto (62.01) who is starting to regain energy after the seven-day heatwave. Most of the runners have lost weight and trimmed down to thin proportions. Now the furnace which has propelled them is craving fuel(fat is the best fuel right now and the only thing available that the body can utilise over a period of days).So eat they must, right to the end. Their own fortitude and inner conviction will carry them as far as possible. Should be an interesting two weeks.
