“The Tarahumara Indians of Mexico run and run and run for the shear joy of it. Aspiring ultramarathoner Christopher McDougall hears of their legendary endurance and searches for the link to this elusive tribe in a recluse runner known simply as “Caballo Blanco.” Ultimately, a group of ragtag Americans is gathered for the race of a lifetime in a canyon far off the map of corporate sponsors. Great characters and great storytelling make this the best book about and for runners . . . ever.”—Dave, Village Books, Bellingham
