Publisher's Summary

The original Born to Run ignited a global barefoot running movement, inspiring a generation to step outside and explore the world on our own two feet: Free from injuries. Free from stress. Free from overpriced shoes and gear and race fees. But how do we start?

Christopher McDougall and long-time coach and running wizard Eric Orton have answered with Born to Run 2: The Ultimate Training Guide, teaching every runner, new or experienced, how to master humankind's first true superpower and tap into hidden reserves of strength and stamina. With chapters dedicated to the Free Seven—Food, Fitness, Form, Focus, Footwear, Fun and Family—we learn exactly how to change our biomechanics, clean up our diets, heal our injuries, adapt to healthier footwear, and prepare for our dream challenge.

Packed with advice and inspiring stories from runners who have made the transition, it includes:

  • A rock-solid food primer on optimum diet and power-packed On the Run recipes
  • Techniques for running with dogs and baby buggies to help you run with the whole family
  • 'Perfect Form' exercises that will overhaul your stride in less than ten minutes
  • A 90-Day Run Free Programme designed to give everything you need to run faster, farther and forever.

Drawing on lessons learned from Mexico's legendary Rarámuri and decades of running research and experiences, Born to Run 2 truly is The Ultimate Training Guide.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Great read!

As a huge fan of the Original Born to Run, I was cautiously optimistic that this book would be good ... I was not disappointed! Not only easy to listen to, this book is filled cover to cover with helpful advice and 'Ah Ha' moments.
I've bought it in physical and digital copy. Couldn't love it more. Launching into the 90 Day Training Plan ASAP.
Thanks Chris and Eric for another great read. Will be re reading for sure.

Brilliant

Listened to Born to Run 1 & 2 straight after each other. Can’t express how much they have changed my mindset toward running. 5 days into the training program and arches are already feeling stronger. Have been barefoot jump roping for years so am quite am already 90% there

My New Adventure

loved the book.
I'm 47 with multiple Toe, knee and back issues.
I have now started my new journey. I've bought my new Altra's today and am looking forward to working with the advice given from this book.
I liked the first Born to Run but very sceptical how this would work for me. So never went down the barefoot journey.
I've only made it to a 22km trail run before. And aim to get back their and beyond.
Thankyou

Doesn’t compare

I really enjoyed the first book so obviously thought I’d enjoy this one. I couldn’t get into it … found it didn’t flow well and just generally didn’t enjoy it. Am yet to finish
