Mexico Tarahumara Virtual Marathon
Sun 21st March 2021
Organiser's Description
Run against real Tarahumara Indigenas and compare your performance! A unique experience!
The Tarahumara indigenas live at the largest canyon in the world, the Copper Canyon in north-eastern Mexico. They refer to themselves as Raramuri, those who run faster, a self-designation that is undoubtedly true. Their secluded life forced the people to long marches and runs of up to 170 kilometers through rough canyons - and that in one day. It is even said that there is a record of 700 kilometers in 48 hours.
Together with the non-profit organization "Fundación Tarahumara José A. Llaguno" and "The Home Depot", we support projects of the Tarahumara indigenas in the areas of nutrition, water security and education of children.
Run virtually with the Tarahumara and receive your hand carved indigene medal - a real unique piece!
Sign up now, because the places in this coveted run are very popular!
