 NATIONAL BESTSELLER • The astonishing and hugely entertaining story that completely changed the way we run. An epic adventure that began with one simple question: Why does my foot hurt?

“Equal parts quest, physiology treatise, and running history.... The climactic race reads like a sprint.... It simply makes you want to run.” —Outside Magazine

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 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 America’s best ultra-runners against the tribe. McDougall’s 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.©2009 Knopf; (P)2009 Random House Anthropologie Sociologie Sports Voyage d’aventure

The first chapters are a bit long but then it worth it 1000 times! If you are tired of getting injuries when you run this book is the cure.

Amazing book for runners!

I was recommending the book to people before even finishing! The narration is spot on; voicing characters with lively energ and a mild American accent (I can't handle strong ones). I've just finished it and all I want to do is listen to it all over again whilst going for a long run.

Every chapter more addictive and tear jerking end.

I was hesitant at the start, not sure my English knowledge would be good enough, not really understanding where this story was taking it...
but waw! The more I heard the more I loved it!
Great book and great audio too by Sanders!

Fabulous
