Rarámuri: Runners of the Sierra Madre

Rarámuri, Uto-Aztecan for Tarahumara, are among the world's best runners from lives spent traversing the canyon walls and plateaus of the Sierra Madre Occidental in northern Mexico. Some Rarámuri can run up to 200 miles in one event!

 

In a personal narrative complemented by anthropological, ethnographic, and scientific research, Diana Molina will feature the exceptional Rarámuri culture, discuss the impact of modern society on their lifestyle,and highlight the amazing expanse of the canyon environment with stunning photographs taken while living among the tribe for extended periods of time.

 

This event is proudly co-sponsored by the New Mexico Humanities Council.
