McDougall’s extraordinary journey started with one question: “Why does my foot hurt?” This simple question led him to the Tarahumara, the running tribe, and the secrets of running. McDougall recorded his expedition to answer his question in his book, Born to Run, which he uses to encourage people to run. Born to Run, after becoming a bestseller, decided to be made into a movie. However, the book is too long to include all the details for an hour and a half movie. If I were the screenwriter, I would include the Tarahumara and Americans’ race and take out Carrier and Dr. Bramble’s discovery for the interest of the audience and the flow of the movie.

I am sitting in a still room, borrowing a moment to inhale the serenity that seems to float in the air like a cloud of fog, and listening to the silence. Listening closely, I notice that the silence, an absence of apparent sound, is its own symphony; it is an orchestration that is being kept alive by a carefully beating drum. I concentrate on the drum’s beats, observing that its rhythm is steadily and confidently throbbing. When glancing, I make a discovery and erupt with laughter. At this moment, precisely 1:43 PM, I realize that the incessant pulsation is not the tempo of tranquility, but rather the ticking of my watch. A small, thin, golden band strapped to my wrist, the watch is a living creature; it has a face, hands, a heartbeat. It has its own mechanized mind, a willpower to keep ticking at the same pace despite the circumstances; some of the more durable watches even tick under water. Within each brisk movement of the second-hand, a human has laughed, some have shed tears, one is gripped by death, and yet another is being given the gift of life.
