This brings 'Born to Run' to life. The grace and dignity of the people is truky inspiring and a lesson for us all. Will - you never cease to amaze me, not only your running, but also your love for others.
Fascinating! I have been fascinated the Tarahumara ever since I read Born to Run. It is a dream of mine to run in this Ultra-Marathon! What a great story you have and what an amazing job you did in the race.
This is the reason why Im not a big fan of pop culture coming into Mexico. Our indigenous people have so much cultural value and unfortunately many of us Mexicans do not appreciate it nor do we learn about it. Very humble of you as a runner to have done what you did! Saludos desde Mexico!
Back in the 1940's in Mexico, my mother remembers a tarahumara who had walked/ran a very long distance was a friend of my grandmothers. These Native mexicans are an inspiration and a source of pride to me. I think I'll go for a run.
There is hope still for humanity with guys like this around... So much time and respect for this. This video just blew me away... Thanks for uploading it !
Will Harlen is an awesome man! Not because he is a great, great runner that happened to win this race, but because he is obviously an even greater person with "ultra" character! I am so impressed with his humble attitude and reverance for the Tarahumara!
Que hermosa historia...muy humana, orgullosa de mi gente Tarahurama, Raramuri..cuando vivia en cd. Juarez, siempre bajaban de la sierra a vender sus hiebas medicinales y mi padre nunca permitio que se fueran de nuestra casa sin comprar la famosa "hierva de la vivora" para el dolor de estomago, aparte que siempre les daba de comer y ellos humildemente se sentaban fuera de nuestra casa hasta que se terminaban su comida y eso esalgo que siempre admire de ellos....asi nos decian gracias!

Great story and you also are a great human,right now is a difficult time,The Raramuri are in a really bad situation and also the great Caballo Blanco died last week, It is real sad what is happening the Raramuri need help,because it hasnt rain in a long time,so they dont have enough food,and in the other hand Caballo died, it is a difficult time for all the running comunity,but i hope God will show the way.
Wow, mate! Respect for you! Great video and story! I'll subscribe to you and hope to run together at some point in the future! Look after yourself! Cheers from London
I am from Chihuahua . everytime that i said that , the Americans laughing , they reply " that is a dog" "are you a dog?" . and they asked about my heritage. , i said. Very proud. I am raramuri. They looked me creepy.
Wow, running aside that was a very good important poignant point, made about & after the 8 min mark. That receiving should be as natural as giving and not something extra extended, deserving then expressed gratitude. uh, best to listen to how it's expressed in video. This is in no way a dismissible "given"
