22-year-old runner from Mexico wins 50km race wearing only sandals

A 22-year-old runner from the Tarahumara indigenous community won the 50km (31 miles) female category of the Ultra Trail Cerro Rojo in Puebla, in central Mexico on 29 April.

What has caught the attention of the world days after the event was that María Lorena Ramírez completed the race without any professional gear. Her pair of sandals was reportedly made from recycled tyre rubber. She wore a skirt, hat and scarf.
Lorena, considered as one of the fastest long-distance runners from the Tarahumara indigenous community in Chihuahua, defeated 500 other runners from 12 countries that participated.
