Rick, I'll admit that I've wondered about the feasibility of maintaining a really fast pace in a barefoot race -- despite the records of a few Africans. Your...
There are probably several factors to the increased speed, Jerry, but I think one major one has been not forcing myself outside for every run this winter. The...
33 miles this week, not up to my goal, but included an 8-mile and an 11-mile run, both on grass, both in cold conditions that numbed my feet and caused...
Hey Mark, I love the word "primal" which you used in your report. So true! Yes, I would say that you "have seen the proverbial sunset that can only be...
Rick, this is the first time in a while where I actually can't WAIT till my next run and I just finishe! It was pure enjoyment. :) Thanks! ... From: Rick...
I was quite happy with this article. I could tell the reporter knew what I was talking about, since she ran track in college. I thought she gave some good...
Mine was a bit of a taper from last week ... ran 59 miles this week with nothing over 10 miles a run. Legs are feeling rather dead, probably from racing the...
Well, only by a couple of minutes over my 3:54 at Cowtown in February, but I'll take it! http://barefootrunner.org/reports/05bost/05bost.htm Thanks for...

Well, the week started off with a bang ... my 4th Boston Marathon in so many years. Tuesday, no running because of a travel day. The rest of the week was kind...
This was a great opportunity to get the word out about barefoot running. The reporter was very nice, however she did mix proper nouns by referring to me as...
Thanks Mark. Hopefully, it will help add credence to what we do. However, there will always be doubters. She actually got one statement (probably others also)...
I am new to barefoot running but very excited about it. I started on the treadmill and ran a couple of times but found I got blisters I think from meeting the...
Welcome! You sound a lot like me when I first started barefoot running in 2003. I had gone barefoot a lot of my life, whenever I had the chance. It had just...
Went for a run on the dirt road today. I ran the first mile but then it got really rough and had to walk for about 1/2 mile and then went back to running on...
Is it bad to walk as you adjust to barefoot running - in my opinion ... HECK NO! Sounds like you are doing wonderfully well! In preparation for the Heart of...
... Somebody else might have mentioned this already, but I had to toss in my 2 cents worth: Its a general misconception that running barefooted makes our feet...
Good points Ryan. I also think the pendulum swings both ways and probably balances out somewhere in the middle. Perception, as you say is a huge part of...
