When Chris McDougall comes across rumors of a secret band of marathon runners that rule the hills of the Sierra Madre in Northern Mexico, he goes a lot farther for this story than he ever expected possible. They are the Tarahumara Indians. For hundreds of years, they have developed a spirit, culture and way of life in running the trails of their isolated Copper Canyon. In this book, McDougal goes deep.
