Born to Run

Isolated by Mexico’s deadly Copper Canyons, the blissful Tarahumara Indians have honed the ability to run hundreds of miles without rest or injury. In a riveting narrative, award-winning journalist and ceaselessly-injured runner Christopher McDougall sets out to discover their secrets. In the process, he’s taking his readers from science labs at Harvard to the sun-baked valleys and freezing peaks across North The us, where ever-growing numbers of ultra-runners are pushing their bodies to the limit, and, in spite of everything, to a climactic race in the Copper Canyons that pits The us’s best ultra-runners against the tribe. McDougall’s improbable story won’t only engage your mind but inspire your body while you realize that you, indeed all of us, were born to run.
