Micah True (c. 1954 – March 2012[1]), born Michael Randall Hickman and also known as "Caballo Blanco", was an American ultrarunner from Boulder, Colorado, who gained fame as a central character in Christopher McDougall's best selling book [A] Born to Run.[3][4]

True's inclusion in the book garnered him some attention in ultrarunning circles, and some readers credited him as their inspiration for taking up the sport.[1][5][6][7][8]

Life

Micah True was the son of a World War II Marine Corps Gunnery Sergeant and grew up in various nationally located Marine Corps bases.[9]

True attended Humboldt State University where he studied Eastern religions and Native American history. In order to pay for his schooling, he began boxing for money with the name "Gypsy Cowboy." True claimed to have participated in cheating during this time, recalling "I just wandered the country. Taking dives, winning some, losing but really winning others, mostly putting on good shows..."[10] Between 1974 and 1982, True was a professional middleweight boxer, fighting under the name Mike "True" Hickman. His career record was 9 wins (KO 2), 11 losses (KO 9), and 0 draws.[11]

Running career

While living in Boulder, True worked part time as a self-employed furniture mover, but by then his passion had become distance running.[12] For almost 20 years, he spent winters training in Mexico and Central America, averaging 170 miles (270 km) per week.[13][14] He would return to Boulder, Colorado, during the summers to work odd jobs for enough money to live on the rest of the year.[10] He was featured in a 2006 article in Men's Health which elucidates many of the lessons he internalized from the Tarahumara people (a.k.a. Rarámuri).[15][16] True stated his best advice to fellow runners was: "Run easy, light, smoooooth, happy ... and run free! Ándale!"[17]

Copper Canyon Ultra Marathon

True was the founder[18] and race director of the annual Copper Canyon Ultra Marathon,[17][19] which has its start and finish in the town square of Urique, Chihuahua, Mexico. The race covers an estimated 50 miles (80 km) of single track trail and dirt road.[1][17][20] The first Copper Canyon Ultra Marathon was held on March 23, 2003[21] The 2012 event took place on March 12 and was the largest ever with hundreds of participants. Most were local Tarahumara, known for their running endurance, both as a general means of travel and while participating in ceremonial, team-based, long distance running events, most famously the Rarajipari, or ball game. In addition to prize money for the top ten finishers, the event awards seed corn vouchers to all runners who complete the distance.

Due to his pivotal role in the organization and production of the Copper Canyon Ultra Marathon, upon True's demise, the continuation of the event was placed in doubt.[8] Nevertheless, there are those who hope to continue it, although its projected form is unknown.[23] Soon after True's death, a charitable foundation was formed as part of an effort to keep the Copper Canyon race going.[18]

Death

On March 27, 2012, True failed to return after heading out for a run in the Gila Wilderness, part of the Gila National Forest in southwestern New Mexico. He departed from the Wilderness Lodge in Gila saying he was going for a 12 mile (19 km) run. A subsequent mountain rescue effort involved three aircraft and at least nine search and rescue teams in off-road vehicles and on horseback, looking across 200,000 acres (81,000 ha) of high desert.[24][25] He was found dead with his legs dangling in a stream, around 4 p.m., on March 31, 2012.[8][22] The local sheriff said there were "no obvious signs of trauma".[26] His remains were removed by horseback, and because of difficult terrain and remote location, the recovery was not completed until April 1.[1][6][22][24] They were sent for an autopsy by the Office of the Medical Investigator.[8]

Many searchers, including world class ultra-runners such as Scott Jurek,Kyle Skaggs, with many devoted athletes and friends, participated in the 51 mile Copper Canyon Ultra Marathon, traveled to the remote wilderness, to assist with the rescue effort.[27]

True and his Partner, Maria Luisa Walton, was to attend the memorial for his mother, Mary Louise Hickman, on Sunday, April 1, 2012. He is survived by his partner, Maria Luisa Walton, brothers Stephen and David Hickman, and sister Suzanne Dean.[20][28]

A simple memorial gathering was held at Colorado Chautauqua in Boulder on April 6. Walton, and True's friends ran up Flagstaff Mountain and assembled on the Chautauqua park lawn to swap stories and remembrances of him.[29][30]

An autopsy was inconclusive with respect to the actual cause of death, revealing, however, that True was suffering from idiopathic cardiomyopathy, which had caused the left ventricle of his heart to become enlarged. The autopsy report of the Office of the Medical Investigator of New Mexico noted that "[t]he decedent did not have a regular physician and no medical records particularly electrocardiograms or blood pressure readings were available for review" and "[t]he best determination is that of unclassified cardiomyopathy which resulted in a cardiac dysrhythmia during exertion." [31][32]
