Requests:  1 Summary:  Recounts the author's experiences with the reclusive Tarahumara Indians, whose techniques allow them to run long distances with ease, and describes his training for a fifty-mile race with the tribe and a number of ultramarathoners. 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 his 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.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 796.42409 McDougall Mc Checked In Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 796.42409 McDougall Mc Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 796.42409 McDougall Mc Item being held Add Copy to MyList
