The Ramones' 'Listen to My Heart,' Taylor Swift's 'ME,' Emmylou Harris' cover of 'Born to Run' and The Beatles' 'Help' are also suggested. Orton curated a 'Run Free Playlist' for the book that also includes some other music options, each around 90 beats per minute. 'Just doing that simple exercise, you're going to know how to strike the ground, where to strike the ground and have perfect form in a matter of five minutes.' The technique is this: Stand in front of a wall, listen to the song 'Rock Lobster' by the B-52s, and run in place barefoot to the beat of the music. In the book, we talk about how we can really fix your run form in five minutes. 'I think run form is kind of the big foundation. To empower those inspired by the first book but not sure how to proceed, 'Born to Run 2' includes training guides, recipes, shoe recommendations and step-by-step (no pun intended) instructions on running form and strength exercises. But Eric always said, it's never about the shoes. 'After 'Born to Run' came out, a lot of people felt, OK we'll just buy a minimal shoe, and that will solve our problems. You learn to move your body differently, and you will run better, and more happily and with fewer injuries,' McDougall said.īut if the book inspired new runners to try to start running, or retool their form after injuries, there wasn't much in the way of practical instruction.

It's all about how you are physically moving your body. It's not about the watch that you're monitoring. After he ran a 50-mile footrace in the punishing Copper Canyons of Mexico with the Rarámuri, McDougall wanted to share the group's remarkable running capabilities, often done wearing thin sandals or barefoot.
