Why we organise ultra-distance events
Subarnamala Riedel
Subarnamala lives in Switzerland, and one activity the Centre does there is put on ultra-distance races, such as the 26km Lake Zurich swim and the 12 and 24 hour race in Basel. For Subarnamala, these races are 'the spiritual life in action' - an opportunity for the Centre to work together, to serve the athletes, and to be inspired by athletes of all ages who are trying to transcend their capacities.
