Introduction
I got the book after listening to Christopher McDougal on YouTube and TED and thought it will be mainly about running barefoot. However, the book is a story about Christopher following and investigating ancient tribes in Mexico, an epic adventure that began with one simple question: “Why does my foot hurt?” as the author had Knee and other running related injuries and was told not to run, so he began his search for the truth and ended up introduced to the Mexican tribe where he learned how to run barefoot, and for very long distances.
The adventurous book was surprisingly full of various subjects from Long Marathon races, men’s biology and history to the ancient Mexican tribes, their history and much more!
