Part adventure story, part extreme sports, Born to Run is a riveting tale about one journalists quest to discover the secrets of the worlds greatest distance runners--a reclusive Indian tribe living deep in the Copper Canyon of northern Mexico. nThe astonishing national bestseller and hugely entertaining story that completely changed the way we run. nAn epic adventure that began with one simple question: Why does my foot hurt? n nIsolated by Mexicos 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 often-injured runner Christopher McDougall sets out to discover their secrets. In the process, he takes his readers from science labs at Harvard to the sun-baked valleys and freezing peaks across North America, where ever-growing numbers of ultra-runners are pushing their bodies to the limit, and, finally, to a climactic race in the Copper Canyons that pits Americas best ultra-runners against the tribe. McDougalls incredible story will not only engage your mind but inspire your body when you realize that you, indeed all of us, were born to run.n
