Book offers secrets to tribe athleticism,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
In the best-selling book "Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Superathletes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and the Greatest Race the World Has Never Seen" (Knopf, $24.95),[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], McDougall helps make the case that humans have evolved to become distance runners; that running is a natural,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], pleasurable activity all of us should enjoy. "Born to Run" - a fascinating exploration of running that's likely to inspire the spud-like couch potatoes to at least think about hitting the trail - introduces a tribe of extraordinary runners and also the tips for their athleticism. Along the way,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it touches on from running biomechanics and evolutionary science to American running culture and also the business of promoting shoes. It targets the Tarahumara,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a reclusive tribe living in the Copper Canyon area in Mexico.
The Tarahumara love to run,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], sometimes for countless miles at a time,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], shod in sandals,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], without the advantage of sports drinks or protein bars.
Yet they're fast, with incredible stamina,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and rarely will they suffer running injury.
McDougall contrasts these phones runners who wear expensive,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], high-tech footwear. Nike introduced the modern running shoe within the '70s. In the last 3 decades,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Achilles complaints have raised by about 10 %,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], based on running-injury specialist Dr. Stephen Pribut; a study led by a doctor at a university in Switzerland shows "runners wearing top-of-the-line footwear is 123 percent more prone to get injured than runners in cheap shoes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," McDougall writes. The gear designed to correct overpronation,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], provide support and cushion our feet isn't helping us,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he contends. Instead,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it changes our running biomechanics and deconditions our feet,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which can cause injuries. "Before you take a drug,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the FDA has to test it to determine whether it actually does anything and is more beneficial than harmful.
The same thing ought to be done with shoes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," he admits that.
Nike spokeswoman says Nike can't discuss McDougall's book but adds that "Nike continues to be the main thing on barefoot running." It launched the minimalist Nike Free shoe in 2005,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which she says combines the idea of barefoot training with the protection and traction of a shoe. "Nike provides a range of options to suit every runner's needs,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," she explained within an e-mail. "Some runners would like more cushioning,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], structure or stability,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], so we create products with those features for them."
McDougall, 47 along with a freelance journalist in Pennsylvania,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], began researching his book after sports doctors told him he suffered persistent running injuries because his 6-foot-4-inch,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 230-pound body wasn't built for the activity. They said too much running isn't good for just about any body.
He ignored them and took cues in the Tarahumara,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], changing his footwear and diet and running form. His injuries disappeared. He enjoyed his runs more.
These days,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he goes barefoot or wears minimalist shoes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], like the Vibram FiveFingers (www. Running became a resource of stress,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], rather than stress relief,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], McDougall informs me (and that i agree). His advice: Stop pushing myself. Jog shorter distances or more infrequently.
And do whatever it takes to make it fun instead of a chore. His advice to everyone: Embrace the game we're hardwired to do. "(Running) is there,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it's easy and it's fun,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," he admits that. "It will make you feel great,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and we shouldn't be scared of it anymore."
