Indigenous run the length of the Americas for water, way of life

From Alaska to Argentina, the indigenous people of the Americas are uniting in an epic “Race for Peace and Dignity” and will eventually converge beside ancient Mayan ruins in Guatemala.

First held in 1992, the “Carrera de Jornadas de Paz y Dignidad” is a marathon run every four years by indigenous people from across the continent, as a means of promoting their ways of life and drawing attention to problems facing their communities. The lengthy route will take the runners through Guadalajara and along (and across) Lake Chapala next week.
