Honoring Miguel Lara Viniegra
On March 25th we honored Miguel Lara Viniegra. This young man is an inspiration. He is one of the most successful endurance runners in all of Latin America but it is his character and approach to all of life that endears him to so many. Kind, humble, and giving he has become the pride of not only the local Raramuri communities and Urique, but also Chihuahua and all of Mexico.

What an experience we all had at the first Big Dog Backyard Mexico race and all the Backyard Championship Races throughout the world. It will for sure be a few days that those who ran and those who were following along will not soon forget. With the added excitement and drama of having athletes from over 20 countries participating not only on their own, but also as a team member representing their country, incredible performances and dramatic moments were ongoing. The emotional aspect for those of us watching felt as draining as if we were running!
