Product Description

From the best-selling author and renowned coach duo from Born to Run, a fully illustrated, practical guide to running for everyone from amateurs to seasoned runners, about how to eat, race, and train like the world’s best

Whether you’re ramping up for a race or recuperating from an injury, Born to Run 2 is a holistic program for runners of every stripe that centers on seven key themes: food, fitness, form, footwear, focus, fun, and family.

The guide contains:

  • On-the run recipes for race-ready nutrition 
  • Training regimen to help get you in shape and achieve your running goals 
  • Corrective drills to perfect your form 
  • Helpful shoe recommendations 
  • Advice about how to bring more joy into running 
  • Suggestions for finding a running community 

Christopher McDougall and Eric Orton bring all the elements together into an integrated action plan—the 90-Day Run Free training schedule—that provides everything you need to prepare for a mile-long fun run or a 100-mile ultramarathon. Full of helpful illustrations and full-color photos of the iconic first Copper Canyons race, Born to Run 2 is the perfect training companion for anyone who wants to get inspired about the sport again and learn the proven techniques to run smoother, lighter, and swifter.

Because authors, Christopher McDougall and Eric Orton are now partners with Xero Shoes we are proud to also be selling the book.

Second volume

Was motivated to get the physical book because of the signatures ( already own and read the e-version ) Hoping to work my way into some Xero shoes for running ( have a pair for just walking around )

So great to catch up on the B2R crowd and also the new ideas!

Relishing reading through this sequel to B2R, gleaning fresh insights into how to run more naturally and injury free, and most importantly, boost the Joy level!

Great resource for any runner

This is a great practical running guide for any runner of any experience. It covers a wide range of topics from strength, to diet, to technique and form, all written simply. While these authors may not be 100% barefoot/minimalist when it comes to shoes, their techniques and training suggestions are such that you don’t need fancy shoes, a fancy watch, a foot pod or a HRM in order to apply them. If you’ve read the original Born to Run, you’ll appreciate the practical guide and the photographs of the Taraumara and other running characters from the book.

Great book

The first book was the story and inspiration. It introduces the characters. The second one is the mechanics. First one got me back into running the second one is showing me how.

Great Book

I really like the technique training bits. I wish I had had them in 1976 when I started marathoning or even in 2010 when I started barefooting and huarache running. This is a perfect complement to the Born to Run videos Eric is making. Plus,, I can now make myown Pinole!!
