Just as the book "Born to Run" describes the indigenous Tarahumara people of Mexico's Copper Canyons using sandals made from old motorcycle tyres, so do many Maasai people in Kenya and Tanzania. So I couldn't resist the temptation to buy a pair from a Maasai woman when I was in Arusha, Tanzania, during a trip to the Kilimanjaro marathon/half marathon.
In case you're wondering what I really think: Contrary to the message at the end of the film, they are absolutely terrible to run in. Horrible in every way.

"The best money I have ever spent. Great mix of humour, practical technique and theory. It’s brilliant and I have been telling all my friends about it. I’ve knocked 30 secs off my average pace to 4:30 and at 53 I’m absolutely astonished how relaxed I feel running. It’s also really helped my cycling my adapting similar techniques and visualisation. Thanks so much.
