McDougall reveals the secrets of the world's greatest distance runners--the Tarahumara Indians of Copper Canyon, Mexico--and how he trained for the challenge of a lifetime: a fifty-mile race through the heart of Tarahumara country pitting the tribe against an odd band of super-athletic Americans.

Review of 'Born to Run' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Having started my journey towards a barefoot marathon, this book changed the way I think about running: if it feels like work, I'm working too hard.

Overall a pleasant read it felt a bit too long at various points in the story.

What I really missed was a summary of all the resources and names that were scattered around the book
