Born To Run ended and I had mixed emotions about it. The book ends at a race in Cooper Canyons. It is really intense, because the ultra-marathoners from the Tarahumarah are supposed to be there. People heard that it is beautiful to watch how fast and far they run. There endurance and speed is impeccable and like no others.
Some people say that the Tarahumarah runners are a myth. This was the thing Caballo Blanco was trying to figure out. He was looking for this mysterious indian tribe. In the book he found the presence of them but he never actually saw him. He said If they wanted to be found then they would have been seen.
