The Emu 6 Day Race 2015 is taking place in Balatonfured in Hungary on the shore of Lake Balaton. Some of the best multiday runners in the world gathered just over 58 hours ago to race for 6 days in as ideal conditions as the organisers can practicably arrange.
76 runners made the starting line and currently Joe Fejes, the American 6 day record holder has a clear lead over Ireland’s Eoin Keith who has a small lead over Didier Sessegolo. Joe’s 48 hour split of 379,821 km was the best in the world so far this year.
In the women’s race, Sumie Inagaki (342 km) from Japan in her first 6 day race leads Silke Gielen from Germany (320 km) and Sonia Lutterotti in third place, who has set one of ten new 48 hour age group records.
