The runner establishes his baseline, that's the rule and there is no arguing with it.
In your situation, R1 is heading to 2nd base and he established his baseline in that manner. The BR is heading to 1st base and as long as no one is trying to put him out, he can run to the mound if he wants as long as he eventually touches 1st. The fact that R2 was rounding 2nd base means nothing as the BR hasn't acquired 1st base yet.
