Book Summary: 
Born to Run by Christopher McDougall is a thrilling blend of adventure, science, and sports writing that explores the secrets of long-distance running. The book begins with McDougall’s quest to resolve his own chronic running injuries, which leads him to the reclusive Tarahumara people of Mexico's Copper Canyons—indigenous ultra-runners known for their ability to run hundreds of miles without rest, injury, or modern running gear. As McDougall dives into their world, he uncovers the evolutionary, physiological, and psychological aspects of human endurance. The narrative climaxes with an epic ultra-marathon featuring elite American runners and Tarahumara athletes. The book challenges modern ideas about running shoes, training, and the limits of human performance, arguing that running is an innate human trait—and that we are, quite literally, born to run.
