This local guy wants to video tape me for some barefoot footage for his website/business/not sure, really. I know he does have a local guy, Mark Curp, on his...
Practically speaking, Rick, "what's in it for me?" is only the right question if there might be something in it for you -- which is a question to ask a lawyer,...
I was leaning that way, Jerry. You just put it into better words than I. Also, I hadn't thought about asking a pro media person or a lawyer what kind of...

I suspect his reply will be something like, "you will get a professional stride analysis" or something like that. But, it's best to ask him, rather than us...
Hi Daniel, We have a large group of barefoot runners around the world on our email group at; http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/RunningBarefoot/ And another...
To let you know I'm making progress with the barefoot running. Still running only on a hard-rubber track at our local Y; I won't start on the streets for a...
Your friend is right: IF A PERSON RUNS THE SAME GOOFY WAY THEY DID IN SHOES ... YEAH ... THEY WILL PROBABLY INJURE THEIR FEET! That's the point. And, that's...
Rick, you and I agree on this subject.For example, Noakes has already shown that Pose running reduces the impact on the knees by 30 - 50%, and I suspect that...
Felt strong earlier in the week, and now it feels like I have been fighting off the "bug". Still, if I can keep at 50 to 60 miles for the next few weeks until...
Hey Rick, is there going to be a barefoot "group" at Boston? What's your own history with that race? -- Jerry On 6 Mar 2005 at 21:02, Barefoot Rick Roeber...
Rick, Boston 2004 is an awesome story? What a way to do your first barefoot marathon!! Tell me how you have evolved as a runner since last Boston --- what's...
Hey Rick, excuse that "?" after the word "story" -- of course it was meant to be "!". Sorry about that! -- Jerry On 6 Mar 2005 at 20:35, Jerry Griffin wrote: ...
Well, I am certainly less apprehensive about my abilities to finish a barefoot marathon than I was last year at this time. After 7 barefoot marathons, I can...
It certainly does answer my questions, Rick -- thanks! Now, if the weather will give you a break -- no 100-degree asphalt, puleeze -- I think all will be very...
This just in from Polar: "Dear Mr. Griffin, Thank you for your email. We apologize for the delay in responding to your message. It is not possible to use the...
What I like about the Polar S625X is that the HRM is integrated with it. Do you know of any other system that has the GPS and the HRM combined? On 10 Mar 2005...
Nope ... sorry Jerry. I am not much of a SME (subject-matter expert) on GPS devices or HRMs. Regarding HR, usually when I feel like I am sucking air too quick...
I also own the s625x. The only system without a footpod that can supposedly do what it does (albeit probably not as well!) is the Timex Bodylink system. Here...
Rick, based on your track record, I think maybe I should get rid of my HRM altogether! -- Jerry On 10 Mar 2005 at 1:18, Barefoot Rick Roeber wrote: Nope ......
Thanks, Mark! -- Jerry On 10 Mar 2005 at 5:10, Mark wrote: I also own the s625x. The only system without a footpod that can supposedly do what it does (albeit...
Personally, I consider a heart rate monitor to be one of the best running purchases I ever made (but I never used one for years, so I'm not saying it's...
I know a lot of people share your sentiments. Personally, I have never used one so if I did, I might become hooked on the "data feedback" I would receive. I am...
Having heart rate compared to speed+distance and perceived effort totally rocks in my book! It is like having your own personal coach! Mark ... never used one...
It sounds like nirvana to me. I'm training LSD with carefully controlled HR -- working up to 3+ hrs @ <70% of HR max; being able to free run and monitor the...
regarding the 2nd Annual Soles For Souls Pledge Drive I do for Lee's Summit Elementary. Hmmmm ... guess I'll have to keep qualifying for Boston to continue...
This was a tough week physically. I came down with the upper- respiratory "crud" last Sunday. Started a new position with my company on Monday and ended up...
I finished my third week of regular running. Ran every day, 32 miles total, all barefoot, all indoor, all low-speed, low HR. Very satisfying. By April,...
