Should be an interesting program tonight! 

"The  Perfect Runner celebrates the modern love of long-distance running by  exploring our evolutionary past as a species defined by its ability to  run."

Does CBC air in the US?  If so, maybe.  If not, nope!  But it looks very interesting.

On tonight? Just might! Thanks for the head's up on this!

A few years ago PBS had done a series on running, i think with the series Nova, and they followed a group training for a marathon.  It was very interesting.

On a similar note, there is a good article in the latest running magazine about a guy who runs with folks from an Amish community.  The Amish are fast runners!

The tree-swingin' days were a bit further back than just 10,000 years ago.    That said, it looks very interesting.  Thanks for the tip!  (and yes, NOVA rocks!)
