This audiobook explores the evolution of humans as exceptional distance runners, starting from a time two million years ago in Africa when our ancestors relied on endurance to hunt. It examines the modern running injury epidemic, delving into the barefoot running movement and its insights on the causes of these injuries. Drawing on the best-seller "Born to Run," it analyzes how our evolutionary journey has influenced our physical capabilities, while also addressing how contemporary lifestyles have impacted our running abilities. The audiobook concludes with practical advice for runners, presented by a 2012 Olympic Trials qualifier in the marathon.
