About the author:
Rupantar has been the race director of the Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team since 1985, having been asked by Sri Chinmoy to serve in that capacity. As well as working on the big races the US Marathon Team organise each year - the 3100 Mile Race and the Six and 10 Day Race - he also spends a considerable amount of time archiving the Marathon Team's 40 year history on this website.
The Sri Chinmoy Self-Transcendence 3100-Mile Race was highlighted as one of '5 extremely extreme races' in the December 2015 issue of British Airways' 'High Life' inflight magazine.
