Sri Chinmoy challenges himself with the Bullworker Exerciser at Maddal Circus held on the stage of John F. Kennedy High School in the Bronx. He wears a Madal Bal T-shirt given to him by his disciples who run the Swiss health food company.
Sri Chinmoy finishes the 100-metre race at Sports Day at Fox Hill High School, Bedford, New York, in a time of 15.2 seconds.
Sri Chinmoy jogs 100 metres with Olympic gold medallist Sudhahota Carl Lewis, who racewalks, and then lifts him twice – first, using only his right arm and then, using only his left arm – at Victory Field in Forest Park, New York. This is the first occasion on which Sudhahota is lifted by Sri Chinmoy.
