About this listen
Un relato fascinante que no solo conquistará tu mente sino que también inspirará tu cuerpo cuando descubras que el secreto de la felicidad está a tus pies y que todos hemos nacido para correr.
Repleto de personajes inolvidables, increíbles hazañas atléticas y ciencia de vanguardia, Nacidos para correr es una aventura épica que comienza con la simple pregunta: ¿por qué me duele el pie? Para encontrar una respuesta, Christopher McDougall nos lleva desde los laboratorios científicos de alta tecnología de Harvard hasta los sofocantes valles y los picos nevados donde cada vez más corredores llevan sus fuerzas al extremo.
Protegida por el terreno más abrupto de América del Norte, la misteriosa tribu de los tarahumara de las Barrancas del Cobre, en México, custodia un arte perdido. Durante siglos han desarrollado técnicas que les permiten correr cientos de kilómetros sin descanso, convirtiéndolos en los corredores de fondo más rápidos de todos los tiempos. Este talento, casi sobrehumano, convierte a los tarahumara en hombres serenos e inmunes a las enfermedades y a las tensiones de la vida moderna. Con la ayuda de Caballo Blanco, un curioso personaje que años atrás se internó en las salvajes barrancas para vivir entre ellos, el autor pudo desvelar los secretos de este pueblo mítico al tiempo que descubría al atleta que llevaba dentro, entrenándose para uno de los mayores retos de su vida: una carrera de ochenta kilómetros que enfrentaría a la tribu contra un extraño grupo de corredores.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Story
In Wildlife Wars, Terry Grosz serves up fascinating stories - alternately hair-raising, hilarious, and heart-wrenching - from his 30-year struggle to protect wildlife in America. A natural storyteller, Grosz writes about the remarkable characters he met - on both sides of the law - as he matched wits with elk poachers, salmon snaggers, commercial-market duck hunters, and a host of other law-breakers. Best of all, though, these stories are so remarkably entertaining you won't want to put them down.

When Edmund Hillary first conquered Mt. Everest, Sherpa Tenzing Norgay was at his side. Indeed, for as long as Westerners have been climbing the Himalaya, Sherpas have been the unsung heroes in the background. In August 2008, when eleven climbers lost their lives on K2, the world’s most dangerous peak, two Sherpas survived. They had emerged from poverty and political turmoil to become two of the most skillful mountaineers on earth. Based on unprecedented access and interviews, Buried in the Sky reveals their astonishing story for the first time.

Story
When Ball Four was published in 1970, it created a firestorm. Bouton was called a Judas, a Benedict Arnold and a “social leper” for having violated the “sanctity of the clubhouse.” Baseball commissioner Bowie Kuhn tried to force Bouton to sign a statement saying the book wasn’t true. Ballplayers, most of whom hadn’t read it, denounced the book. It was even banned by a few libraries. Almost everyone else, however, loved Ball Four.

On the playing field, natural talent isn’t enough—there’s a mental component that determines whether athletes win the race or wipe out before the finish line. But what separates standout sports stars from the rest? In a paradigm-shifting new theory, acclaimed sportswriter Matt Fitzgerald identifies two key traits behind athletic success: strict self-regulation over thoughts and emotions and an unquenchable psychological need to pursue victory—even when it means enduring extreme mental and physical suffering.

Story
Many poker players can make good decisions at the table with a reasonable frequency. Nevertheless, there are numerous situations where even very experienced players behave in predictable ways. These deeply-ingrained habits lead them to make mistakes. The problem is that these situations won't often arise at the table by chance - you have to make them happen. Exploitative Play in Live Poker is a ground-breaking work that teaches you how to create the circumstances where your opponents will be likely to blunder and how to exploit them when they do.

Fascinante, inspirador, didáctico!
Magistralmente escrito como una novela de entrelazando historias de una manera que te mantiene con un interés encendido sin querer dejar de escuchar, los corredores escépticos lo encontrarán quiza un tanto controversial, los no corredores querrán salir a correr una ultramaraton porque una maratón se les hará poca cosa y quizá aburrida, los corredores confundidos descubrirán cientos de motivos para amar cada centímetro recorrido y querrán lanzarse a devorar distancias recorriendo terrenos y redescubriéndose así mismos, los historiadores encontrarán fascinante la historia de la evolución que propone el autor junto a estudiosos del tema, y para los Mexicanos nos tocará el corazón descubriendo la sensibilidad y grandeza de un pueblo desconocido para muchos, me ha maravillado con que profundo respeto se describe a la cultura Tarahumara, es un libro maravilloso que le recomendaría a correrodes y no corredores. Es inspirador hasta la médula, nunca imagine que descubriría tanto en un libro que lleva como tema el correr. Simplemente Maravilloso.
