        It's been over a decade since McDougall's Born to Run (2009) was published and topped lists of "must-read" running books. A combination adventure story about running through Mexico's Copper Canyon and a self-exploration on how to run injury free, it helped launch the minimalist movement and fuel the fast-growing sport of ultrarunning. Now McDougall and his famous coach Orton provide a follow-up to the many characters introduced in the first book; they still take jabs at the running-shoe industry, but the focus here is on training, not speed work. This is a practical guide stressing fundamentals (food, fitness, form, focus, footwear, fun, family), with the emphasis on learning to run well. The text includes a ""90-Day Run Free Program"" plus numerous diagrams, strength exercises, and plenty of color photos, many featuring diverse, adaptive athletes. This will appeal to new runners and energize those recovering from injuries, as well as older runners and those who have burned out. McDougall is a captivating storyteller and a steadfast advocate who continues to promote the joy of running.
