But I can say unequivocally that Caballo's message, as told through McDougall, has inspired total change in my love of running. It was while on the trail this morning that I came across another runner who told me of Caballo's disappearance, and after returning home to look up the details I found this board. I am so recently removed from "Born" that this just feels like a continuation of the story...the real world colliding with the narrative in my head. Hard to comprehend.<br /><br />I have my first distance race this weekend, and Caballo will be at the forefront of my thoughts throughout the run, and every run from here on. Rest well, knowing your message has reached a world of grateful disciples.Stillmanjinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174334739699237799.post-68706652319505908582012-04-03T07:21:52.414-04:002012-04-03T07:21:52.414-04:00Never met him BUT felt him ... as a close friend ....Never met him BUT felt him ... as a close friend ...<br />Thanks Caballo!<br /><br />Rod from Czech RepublicRod Dockalnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174334739699237799.post-14308509629707113612012-04-02T21:26:26.015-04:002012-04-02T21:26:26.015-04:00From Kingston, Canada, I would like to send my con...From Kingston, Canada, I would like to send my condolences to all people who were close to Micah True/Caballo. I only know of him through the Born to Run book but reading about him quickly made me realize how special and genuine this person was. You inspired me and many (running) friends around me. May you rest in peace and may the world remember how you made such a positive difference in the lives of many - close to you and far away. <br /><br />DianneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174334739699237799.post-62907504801517912642012-04-02T16:48:40.380-04:002012-04-02T16:48:40.380-04:00Thank you Dear Flint for the updates.

I ran for Caballo on Friday, praying with each step for his safe return. As my run ended, I made one last request: that if Micah was not found, or if it was discovered that he had passed, that he left this world with as light a heart as he lived within it. <br /><br />I began rereading Born to Run today; I am thankful that, through that work, I can meet Caballo again, over and over. <br /><br />Thank you, Flint, for updating us through what I can only imagine has been a very trying time for you.Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12016177562676342736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174334739699237799.post-47681824535242459102012-04-01T19:06:30.790-04:002012-04-01T19:06:30.790-04:00Thanks so much Flint for keeping us all informed. ...Thanks so much Flint for keeping us all informed.
