My husband and I just finished the amazing, bestselling book "Born to Run" by Christopher McDougall. A must-read for runners. In this book, running is described in a compelling, epic way and placed in the greater context of human history. (McDougall pulls together all the subjects mentioned in the blog article above -- and more.) I was just wondering -- does the Philippines have a group with a running tradition like the Raramuri people (Tarahumara)? A special indigenous energy drink too? Perhaps in the mountain provinces? The old folks certainly floated up the mountains very quickly up there compared to me and my group in heavy hiking boots (which I never use anymore). Perhaps, I can get some deep insight into running from my own ancestry! (I also posted this question on the incl. the FitMommy & Takbo sites.)
