Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Superathletes, and the Greatest Race the World Has Never Seen by Christopher McDougall

adventurous informative medium-paced

4.0

Not bad! I don’t care much about sports/running, but this was an interesting way to learn a very small bit about the Tarahumara tribe and about a big race in my home state. Some rumblings of eurocentrism and colonial mindset, but nothing like outright xenophobia. The author does give sexism in sports a pass by including it without commentary. Otherwise, an interesting read. Loved the vivid and creative descriptions throughout.
