These are the interim results from the Self-Transcendence 6 & 10 day races 2012 in Flushing Meadow Park, New York. After dropping into second place after lower mileage days on days 3 and 4, Asprihanal Aalto clocked 85 miles on day 5 to bring himself back into contention. Starting day 6 with a 17 mile cushion William Sichel dug deep to try and secure second place but Asprihanal was building up a head of steam that saw him narrow the gap and draw level before pulling away in the final hours to complete 91 miles for the final day.

In the ladies Six day Dipali Cunningham maintained her unbeaten reign as Queen of the Six Day and coming fourth overall.

In the womens 10 day race after being level at the 9 day mark with Kaneenika Janakova, Sarah Barnett eased into first place by running 74 miles to Kaneenika’s 69 miles on the final day to secure the win.
