Born to Run 2: The Ultimate Training Guide
Born to Run is the most popular book ever written about the world’s most popular sport.
Now, Born to Run 2 reveals the training secrets that made it possible. Christopher McDougall and coach Eric Orton describe the techniques for rebuilding McDougall in just one year from an injured, discouraged, overweight ex-athlete into an ultramarathoner capable of tackling a 50-mile race against Mexico’s legendary “Running People.” Full of helpful illustrations and full-color photos, Born to Run 2 is the perfect companion for anyone who wants to learn the ancestral way to run smoother, lighter, and faster — forever.

No one ever finished a run with a friend and thought, “Well, that was a bad idea.” When it comes to running distances and forming communities, humans are the best in the world. We’re are the most social creatures ever. So if you mostly run with your dog, or your thoughts, or your music, somewhere near you is a group that would love to meet you.
