Members of the Sri Chinmoy AC were in Greenwich on Sunday 23rd October to witness Jesper Olsen's completion of the first ever round-the-world run!
History was made on October 23rd 2005 when Jesper Olsen ran from Luton to Greenwich, completing a journey of over 26,000 KM which he had begun in February 2004. Jesper is now, officially, the first person to have run right around the world. Jesper has been supported enthusiastically by runners and onlookers all over the world, and we were grateful that the Sri Chinmoy AC was able to contribute in a small way to his amazing run by providing a support car and some co-runners for the last four days (Derbyshire to London).
