Tarahumara Indigenous people’s incredible track record | SLICE
In the Chihuahua state of Mexico, isolated by some of the most savage terrain in the Americas, the Tarahumara Indigenous people continue to practise the running techniques that allow them to run hundreds of miles without rest. The word they use to describe themselves is Raramuri, meaning “runners on foot” or “those who run fast” in their native language.
They traditionally ran barefoot over long distances as a ceremonial practice and competitively. These races can last anywhere from a few hours to a couple of days without a break. This common practice once used to chase down animals to hunt, has morphed into a modern day sport for thrill seeking ultra-marathon runners. People from across the globe travel to Tarahumara territory to participate in the Caballo Blanco 80 km race.

Estoy orgullosa de mi gente de mis hermanos raramuris orgullosamente sierra tarahumara de mi chihuahua lindo y querido gracias por el documental
The colours of your flowing robes and huaraches are iconic. I hope you will always preserve them as part of your running culture.
It is without any doubt the most beautiful place to run 🏃 together with the tarahumara. Thanks for posting. I hope one day the security will improve and the crimes become a lot less. 🙏

Tarahumara member gabriel batista and 3 others ran at Leadville and placed in the top 10 Gabriel finished 4th at Leadville and 3 in the WS-100 in 1995 with better support he could have one, he finished in sandals, what a hero
Wow amazing! Thank you for such magnificent report.. I’m proud to be Mexican!!
My mother was Yaqui. She would speak of the mountain runners.
Las barrancas son tan hermosas y poderosas como su gente.
Great that the race continued! Good to the local and state governments keeping the race alive and not caving in to fear and problems going on in another city. When you do that, everybody loses.
Orgullosa de mis raíces felicidades por tan hermoso documental !!!
Impressive work... congratulations for the documentary
Nice one, it almost made me cry 😢
My grandfathers mother was raramuri not gonna lie those corn and bean tortillas look good

Dios bendiga esta gente 🙏
Shine on you crazy diamonds 💎 ❤
Magnificent but certainly challenging landscapes to run in, all of the runners are full of running joy! May peace, positivity, joy, contructive actions and compassion be the guiding lights throughout Mexico and violence in the ancient history books. Nothing is ever gained from the ways of the Cartels, only trauma. The good life is full of joy, balance, peace, harmony and lots of fun running with friends.
I don't know the narrator's name, but he made the doc very interesting.
Amazing 👍
A beautiful people
Masha Allah very nice video and very interested runing good for health i can't run i got bad knee

I am Tarahumara & even though Miguel is a name given to our men by colonizers I still would love the narrator to pronounce it Mig-elle instead of Mig-well. A little homework could’ve gone a long way.

Once upon a time there was a crazy French artist called Artaud who visited and wrote about having revelations there about 100 years ago… that was when the Tarahumara entered the Western literature as a spiritual culture

WHO'S IDEA WAS IT TO USE THE THROAT NOISE FOR BACKGROUND NOISE? WRONG SIDE OF THE WORLD PRODUCER!
that is so sad
Los carteles son un mal pudrefacto, porque sus cosas deben afectar la vida de los demas? Que cada quien consuma lo que quiera y que cada quien produsca lo que le.convenga, pero sin afectar a los demas.

That just shows that just shows its the high fat diet because the Terra humara Indians have the exact same genetics as Mexicans they eat no fat in their diet

Tarahumara*** Mexican is a nationally not a race. And not all Mexicans are indigenous. And not all indigenous Mexicans are Tarahumara. The diets are similar but not the same at all. Mexican cuisine has a lot more consumption of animals, & dairy products. Additionally a lot of the “tortillas” are not made from native seeds. But from gmo seeds.

Their diet is almost exclusively corn and only because they were historically pushed away from fertile lands into dry valleys

Most Mexicans are Indigenous and have a high percentage of Indigenous DNA, even the ones with the slightest hint of Indigenous features, I'm not taking about skin color, but for some stupid reason they glom on the low percentage, 20% or 10% many times even less percentage than that of the rest of the DNA.
I was really into the video. Learning and watching these strong people from the sierra of chihuahua when u mentioned the narcos… I lost interest and turned the tv off.. disgusted 🤮 to my stomach
