Book: Born to Run
 

I thought I recommend a recent book I read on running that I found very inspiring called Born to Run. It's about the Tarahumara people in Mexico who run these ultra distance races for fun. The book goes into who these people are, about how the human body is made to run (and how modern shoes encourage running styles that actually do more harm than good) and ends with a ultimate ultra marathon between the best U.S. ultra marathoners and the best Tarahumara runners.

It was very inspiring to read and made me want to get back into running again. I even put in my name for the NY Marathon lottery to have some goal to work towards.

Anyone else read this book? Would love to hear your thoughts as well.

I'm have this on hold at my library. I'm glad it sounds like it'll be worth the wait.
