“Running in Tarahumara (Rar\u00e1muri) Culture,” just published in Current Anthropology<\/i> (v61, no. 3 (June 2020): 356-379) studies the Tarahumara Native Americans of northern Mexico.<\/p>\n

For over a century, the Tarahumara have been famous for their long distance running traditions and abilities, with many accounts claiming they have superhuman athletic abilities that partly result from being uncontaminated by westernization. <\/p>\n

Now an international team of researchers (including a champion Tarahumara runner) combine their own observations with detailed interviews of elderly Tarahumara runners to dispel these stereotypical myths, which they term the “fallacy of the athletic savage.”
\nLieberman and colleagues use accounts by Tarahumara runners to detail the various ways Tarahumara used to run for hours to hunt animals, and they describe how the Tarahumara still run traditional long distance races that, for men, involve chasing a small wooden ball and, for women, a hoop. While these many different kinds of running have important social<\/a> dimensions, running is also a spiritually vital form of prayer for the Tarahumara.
\nFurther, contrary to the fallacy of the athletic savage, Tarahumara runners \u2014both men and women\u2014 struggle just as much as runners from other cultures to run long distances, and instead of being the natural “superathletes” that some journalists have claimed, they develop their endurance from regular hard work and other endurance physical activities such as lots of walking and dancing.<\/p>\n
