Nonetheless, our author went for a second opinion. Torg, who is in large part to thank for the field of sports medicine, proclaimed, 'Running is your problem.' When a world-renowned expert warns you off running, and backs this up with statistics that eight out of ten runners are injured or hurt every year, it's hard to argue. It all began with the simple question, 'How come my foot hurts?' In a bid to answer this, McDougall approached the best sports medicine specialists in the US, and asked the best brains in the field why incidents of running injuries are so high. Weaving together folklore, cutting edge science, anthropology, investigative journalism, and lashings of bravery and determination, McDougall seeks to find out once and for all if humans are supposed to run.
