The Fitness Journal

I have to say right from the beginning that other than some sprinting at high school, I have never been a runner and have had absolutely no interest in running. Given this, it was a huge shock to me that after listening to the audio version of Born To Run by Christopher McDougall, I am motivated to add some running to my training program. I still have no interest in doing any distance running but the idea of adding some barefoot running in the park to improve my strength and foot health is very tempting.

I commute to and from the studio at least once a day and generally listen to audio books on my travels. Born To Run is a great “read” and I recommend it wholeheartedly. It is both very informative and extremely entertaining and tells the story of McDougall’s running injuries, ultra distance running and the Tarahumara Indians. It also tells it like it is in relation to the problems with running shoes and the running shoe industry.

Do yourself a favour and either read or listen to Born To Run.
