Uncover your inner athlete!

Every morning in Africa a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be eaten.. Each morning in Africa a lion awakes - it knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle or it will starve.


No matter if you are the lion or the gazelle, when the sun comes up you had better be running!

Korima and the spirit of the runner

To run with the earth and feel at one with the earth is the greatest gift that we as runners can receive. This is the way of the Raramuri people who are epitomised in this video clip.

My spirit for running had been flagging since this weekend’s big event, but finding this video has restored my faith in the spirit of running.

As he says in the video:
1. Observe the running ceremonies
2. Protect the forest
3. RUN!

Seek not the medal, but rather how we can return the Korima that comes our way. – Sean Muller

    Thanks Nats. Glad you enjoyed it!

    I think there is something in that for everyone not just runners.

    Great to have you onboard.
