In a nutshell, it was a balmy, warm day in KC with overcast skies, light rain, and 48 degrees. Barefoot Bart and Rick showed up for the first year's running of...

An interesting and instructive run today. We got about an inch of freezing rain last night and then about an inch of sleet today. I went out after lunch for my...
Rick, you might be interested to know that I've seen videos of various people -- including some kids -- running, at a very good pace, on sheer ice. They were...
I think it would take some practice before I could run at any type speed on ice, Jerry. Actually, that sounds very logical that they were using the Pose Method...
Rick, As you know from lurking :), the distance from barefoot running to Pose isn't too great. I'm curious to know: how different is your running style from...
I have never ran with someone who was running Pose, so I can only speculate from what I have read and from photos and drawings I have seen. Actually, cold...
As best I can make out, the real purposes of running Pose are to (1) maximize efficiency and (2) run injury-free. Secondary goals would be to improve speed,...
Hey! Its great to see Rick with his own message board! Congratulations! I smiled when I read the name "barefootrick" -- I can't help pronouncing it as...
Thanks for joining Ryan! Ryan is a regular over on Ken's site, and has added a lot to the group. While Barefootrick may be duplicity, in some regards, with...
Ryan, every time I read a story like yours, it strengthens my resolve to emulate you guys. -- Jerry On 7 Jan 2005 at 17:43, ardydub@... wrote: Hey! Its...
just a cheap one that I can use on days like today. There is just too much crunchy ice out there which has a negative effect on my feet. I experienced some...
Thanks for the message, Jerry! I've found the barefoot running message boards to be about the most supportive bunch ever! Very positive! Caution: As I read...
Ended up with 47 miles this week. Probably wouldn't have gotten that many if I wouldn't have done some treadmill running. I have found that I cannot stack too...
Check out the Q&A toward the bottom of the newsletter. They printed my response to "What kind of special run do you do in snowy weather? They asked for it ! BR...
I had an experience today on a 6 miler. I was wearing shorts, barefoot of course, and it was 28 degrees. I was running down the sidewalk along a busy street. A...
Let's see, Rick, your message is "barefoot running rules because.... I can run in any weather conditions and never get soggy shoes", right? That is definitely...
Discovering a couple of days ago that I had minor frostbite on the tips of two toes, I have been driven inside to run most of the week (I did have one outside...
This has definitely been a week of indoor running. The only run outside was on Tuesday. High temps have been averaging the past few days about 10 degrees....
A good week of mileage with some technique enhancing runs at 8 minute pace. 64 miles http://barefootrunner.org/05weeklymileage/weekending1-23-05.htm...

Rick, like s____, aging happens! But a nearly two-minute decline in a year isn't the effect of aging -- it just doesn't happen that way. I think it's all that...
You may be right about that treadmill, Jerry. While it helps maintain a certain level of fitness, it's not the same that's for sure. Thanks! BR Jerry Griffin...
Hi Jerry, I've had a couple of days to think about what you said about treadmilling. For me, I don't think that is the case. Actually, something I didn't...
Well, Rick, my real point wasn't about the treadmill -- it was that I really doubted you were suddenly starting to show your age -- and what you said in this...
