Video from Born to Run

The publisher of Born to Run sent me a video to share. I have no idea how they found me in cyberspace. Click title above to view.

Born to Run

Heard an amazing interview on the Bob Edwards radio show yesterday (NPR). Christopher McDougall has written about a tribe of Mexican Indians from the Copper Canyon who are probably the best distance runners on the planet. The Tarahumara tribe may also be the happiest, most peaceful and healthiest people in the world. James Fixx’s The Complete Book of Running was what originally inspired me to run for a few years some 30 years ago. This book may be even more inspirational and more important. The book is Born to Run . Check it out. You may throw away your running shoes and take to the trails barefoot. I definitely will be reading. And maybe you will see me out on the trails again, worn out joints, extra pounds, sore feet and all.
