Isolated by Mexico's deadly Copper Canyons, the blissful Tarahumara Indians of have honed the ability to run hundreds of miles without rest or injury. In a riveting narrative, award-winning journalist and often-injured runner, Chris McDougall sets out to discover their secrets. In the process, he takes his readers from science labs at Harvard to the sun-baked valleys and freezing peaks across North America, where ever-growing numbers of ultra-runners are pushing their bodies to the limit, and, finally, to a climactic race in the Copper Canyons that pits America’s best ultra-runners against the tribe. McDougall’s incredible story will not only engage your mind but inspire your body when you realize that you, indeed all of us, were born to run. 克里斯托弗•麥克杜格爾（Christopher McDougall）美國作家。畢業於哈佛大學，後入美聯社擔任記者，赴安哥拉、剛果和盧安達報導戰事。返美後為《戶外》、《紐約時報》、《跑步者世界》等刊物撰稿。曾三度入圍全美雜誌報導獎。愛好跑步，但頻受腳痛之苦。偶然得知在墨西哥的銅峽谷，隱居著史上最強的長跑族群塔拉烏馬拉人。於是穿越峽谷，尋找和族人頗有交情的奇人卡巴洛，一睹這支與世隔絕的部族的真面貌，探得跑步真諦。此間學習塔拉烏馬拉人的跑法，腳傷不治自愈，後寫下《天生就會跑》一書。目前在練跑步之餘，寫下一部作品。
