Go Trishul, Go! Best wishes from the Prawda Family

Getting everyone here in San Francisco up to the latest on each of your progress and running news!
 
Namitabha, I've never seen our dishwasher, Petar, smile so much as when I told him all about your champion-like running form and consciousness out there in the race! His English suddenly became quite good as he told us all about running along with you in the first week of the race! We are anxiously anticipating your finish this weekend! Very, very proud and excited for your victory!  Suprabha! We are with you every step of the way. Keep up the drinking  :)   :)  and smiling! You are doing so incredibly well and have been braving the miles like a true hero warrior! Wish I could be there to "chat" you through the late laps - definitely I'm there in spirit - straight through till your final lap! Abichal, Matt, Andreas, and Trishul - keep it going! Can you imagine it is already August? The final days are here for each of you and we can't wait to hear you have reached your 3100 Mile Goal!
Ahelee, San Francisco

Dear Friends, Thanks for your welcome on Thursday. You blew my mind as we spoke and ran together around the eternal loop of concrete. Unbelievable even thinking about it days later. It was a thrill to meet so many of you – Matt, Trishul, Abichal and Suprabha. I have taken your offer to step beyond my own ideas and I’ll run a 3 day 100 mile event early September. I am deeply grateful for your time and conversations. That inspired me as much as your heroic feats. Good luck and maybe we can run together in the near future. I wrote a message to my brothers and sisters here in our spiritual group – The Impersonal Enlightenment Fellowship – to tell them about what you are doing. I’ve never received so much response. Everybody is impressed by your spirit and surrender. They send their best wishes and support (about 100 people) for your limitation shattering efforts and results.
Much love, Laurie

Hi Namitabha, Only a few more hours left to the Goal. Victory, Victory, Victory!!!
Gratitude, Jadranka

Hi Matt,
It is Kevin Cassidy here from AURA [Australian Ultra Runners Association]. I have been following your progress with much interest and am very impressed with your achievement in this event. I will be featuring your achievement in our quarterly magazine known as "Ultramag". Once you have recovered from this event, I was wondering if you may possibly put something in writing about your experiences.
Cheers and congratulations, Kevin Cassidy, Australia

Hello, everybody! I'm home, enjoying one of the videos of the race. Thanks to you all for everything you are
doing form the Supreme and His Creation. Abichal, I am still fascinated by your "stream of consciousness" interview in the race video. It has such positive energy! Imagine interviewing someone as they climb Everest!
