  Born to Run

  The astonishing national bestseller and hugely entertaining story that completely changed the way we run. An epic adventure that began with one simple question: Why does my foot hurt? Isolated by Mexico's deadly Copper Canyons, the blissful Tarahumara Indians have honed the ability to run hundreds of miles without rest or injury. In a riveting narrative, award-winning journalist and often-injured runner Christopher McDougall sets out to discover their secrets. In the process, he takes his readers from science labs at Harvard to the sun-baked valleys and freezing peaks across North America, where ever-growing numbers of ultra-runners are pushing their bodies to the limit, and, finally, to a climactic race in the Copper Canyons that pits America's best ultra-runners against the tribe. McDougall's incredible story will not only engage your mind but inspire your body when you realize that you, indeed all of us, were born to run.

  Holy Stork: Holy Stork , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 651min

  Santa Cigüeña, a tale of time - past, present and future. The idyllic community of Santa Cigüeña (Holy Stork), colonized by a group of faithful Sentries in the 1860s was tucked away at the base of the Greater Sierra Madre Occidental Mountains. The Martin family had lived there for generations. Benedict Martin Vth had just finished a hard day's work and was looking forward to smacking his lips on a jalapeño, some homemade flour tortillas and some of the beans he was warming up when the phone rang. The Patriarch was calling and Ben had no idea why, because he had not been to church since Easter and had not planned to go again until Christmas. The Patriarch had a visitor. Big John Duncan, apostle incognito and President of Seymour Hotels International. He had arrived in Santa Cigüeña earlier that afternoon and had brought with him a companion, a Tarahumara girl from the canyon lands. He wouldn't be staying long, just long enough to alter the course of history before getting back to Aurora, Colorado, to iron out the details of an upcoming General Managers conference. Benedict eased his car toward the Patriarch's home. He didn't know it yet, but his whole world was about to be turned head over topsy turvy tails. Author's note: The audiobook contains a few lines in Spanish. Please do not let it dissuade you from listening to this book.
