Born To Run



Great book.  I have read a good many books about running, runners, runs.... This has a lot to offer.  Consider the ultra runner, the 50 to 100+ mile type.  Consider the hunter gatherer, how we evolved into a running machine.  Yes we are running machines, read the book, you'll understand.  

There is some credible evidence that we may be running in running shoes that hinder rather than help.  Less is more, giving the foot the ability to adapt and get stronger....As one with a very sore ankle and years of running on it, I am in the process of trying to land less on the heel and more on the forefoot as I run. 

It's a process and it's in the early stages, very interesing book in every respect....
Now go run.
