The Self Transcendence 3100 Mile Race is an epic feat of running and self transcendence around a small 0.5488 mile loop in Queens New York. These are a few photos taken from this years edition of the race.

It's not always sunny. The early part of the race was marked by heavy downpours making the race more difficult for the runners.

The 3100 Mile race is being run around a small loop (less than one mile) in Queens New York. The course is all on concrete, but some runners and helpers have brightened the course with flowers.
