Thank you, Caballo

A very sad loss to the running community. It is hard to make sense of or find meaning in the passing of Caballo Blanco (Micah True), who inspired so many of us in the most profound way. May we be reminded to heed the yearnings of our soul, as he did, and may we follow in his footsteps of simplicity and peace.



(For those unfamiliar with but curious about who Caballo Blanco was, check out this well-done bio in Sweat Magazine. There is also a very well done short video about the Copper Canyon Ultra Marathon, which Caballo spearheaded, and the Raramuri people of the Sierra Madre, for whom he had the utmost respect and affection.)
