Best book I've read in quite awhile

This was a real page turner that I couldnt put down. Not only am I more motivated to excersize after reading it I'm completely inspired in many other ways also. This is a great book.
Summary:
McDougall reveals the secrets of the world's greatest distance runners--the Tarahumara Indians of Copper Canyon, Mexico--and how he trained for the challenge of a lifetime: a fifty-mile race through the heart of Tarahumara country pitting the tribe against an odd band of super-athletic Americans.
