Born to Run - Christopher McDougall
At the heart of Born to Run lies a mysterious tribe of Mexican Indians, the Tarahumara, who live quietly in canyons and are reputed to be the best distance runners in the world; in 1993, one of them, aged 57, came first in a prestigious 100-mile race wearing a toga and sandals. A small group of the world''s top ultra-runners (and the awe-inspiring author) make the treacherous journey into the canyons to try to learn the tribe''s secrets and then take them on over a course 50 miles long.With incredible energy and smart observation, McDougall tells this story while asking what the secrets are to being an incredible runner. Travelling to labs at Harvard, Nike, and elsewhere, he comes across an incredible cast of characters, including the woman who recently broke the world record for 100 miles and for her encore ran a 2:50 marathon in a bikini, pausing to down a beer at the 20 mile mark.

Autor knihy se jako miliony jiných amatérských běžců aspoň jednou ročně vážně zranil. Po cyklech bolestí, injekcí a střídání běžeckých bot chtěl na doporučení lékařů s běháním skoncovat. Místo toho se však vydal do kaňonů v Mexiku, kde žijí Tarahumarové – nejtajemnější, nejzdravější a nejšťastnější běžci na planetě. Běhání v extrémních podmínkách jen v sandálech je pro ně stejně přirozené a snadné jako dýchání. Čtivý příběh o běžcích na stokilometrové trati autor doplňuje o nejnovější vědecké poznatky.
