Run and Become: Self-Transcendence and Human Potential
Join filmmaker, Sanjay Rawal, for a behind-the-scenes look at his upcoming film, 3100: Run and Become. Sanjay, who directed and produced the James Beard Award–winning documentary FOOD CHAINS, spent two years with Navajo, Bushman and esoteric Asian cultures that still use running as a pathway to enlightenment. At the same time, he focused the narrative of this film around the world’s longest running race, the annual Self-Transcendence 3100 Mile Run, which requires its 15 participants to average 60 miles a day for 52 days and is conducted entirely around a 1/2 mile sidewalk loop in Queens.
You might not be a runner. You might not even like running (or runners!), but the strength and determination that these athletes utilize to challenge impossibility demonstrates the vast potential we have simply as humans.
