Christopher McDougall is the author of the international bestsellers "Born to Run," "Natural Born Heroes," and "Running with Sherman."

His fascination with ancestral fitness techniques also led him to create the popular video series, "Art of the Hero." McDougall began his career as a foreign correspondent for the Associated Press, covering wars in Rwanda and Angola.

He now lives and writes (and runs, swims, climbs, and bear-crawls) among the Amish farms around his home in rural Pennsylvania. This fall, he'll release his latest book: "Born to Run 2: the Ultimate Training Guide."
