I'm giving up. I don't care for the author's style. It a little like reading Bill Bryson but he spends to long on a topic. I'm listening to the audio book so skimming isn't really an option. and i can see where it's going and i'm barely into the book at all; shoes are bad, we run wrong. the end.

also his exagerated descriptions of the Tarahumara make my inner anthropologist cringe.
