Caballo Blanco’s Last Run: The Micah True Story

Post by kingsnake »

Don't know how many of you read the New York Times, but the Monday sports page had a several page article on the search for Micah True:

Micah True died while running through a magnificent wilderness, and then many of his closest friends came together to search for him, stepping through the same alluring canyons and forests and streams, again and again calling out his name.

Thanks for posting this.....this last part really caught my attention.

A very intesting read!

He left doing what he loved the most...
One of my friends is in the book that made Caballo famous... I know he is sorely missed by his friends and the running community in general.

Great article on NYT. "Born to Run" is a great book as well...
RIP Micah!
