Running the world's longest race
Jayasalini Abramovskikh
In 2014, Jayasalini Abramovskikh became the first female Russian finisher of the Sri Chinmoy Self-Transcendence 3100 Mile Race.
Here, she talks about the challenges of taking the time off to do the race, as well her goals after the race: "For me the answer is to have that deep inner connection with my soul, with my inner being, at every moment of my life, as strong I had during the race."
