As someone who runs regularly, I couldn't put Born to Run down. McDougall's storytelling is so compelling that I found myself reading late into the night. The book delves into the world of ultrarunning, focusing on the Tarahumara people of Mexico's Copper Canyons, who run incredible distances with ease. Their approach to running—joyful, communal, and without modern gear—reminded me of why I started running in the first place: for the pure pleasure of movement. What stood out to me was how McDougall emphasizes that running isn't just about speed or distance; it's about building yourself up, both physically and mentally. He challenges the notion that running is inherently harmful, suggesting instead that our bodies are designed for endurance. This perspective shifted my mindset, helping me appreciate each run as an opportunity to connect with my body and the world around me. Reading this book heightened my passion for running, reminding me that it's not about chasing records but about embracing the journey. If you're a runner—or even if you're not—I highly recommend Born to Run. It's a testament to the joy and resilience that running can bring into our lives.
