Yep - add me to the list. When I was running with shoes I couldn't touch my toes to save my life & I was doing a lot of stretching. Now I can easily touch my...
I am very new to barefoot running (still within my first month). So I do shorter runs BF and shod longer runs. The running shoes I do have are super cushy,...
Here's a link to the shoe details: http://www.nbwebexpress.com/newbalanceMR800MF.htm There is a NB 800 trail running shoe that is completely different, so ...
While I haven't tried that shoe, it looks like it will not help you learn much about how to run barefoot. It "packs outstanding shock absorbtion and...
I have no experience with NB 800 but I recently went through a gradual change from shod running to BF running. I also wanted to continue running long races...
I have tried the NB800 and I honestly felt no difference between that shoe and nearly every other heavily cushioned shoe I've ever owned. Maybe the heel is a...
I run trail ultramarathons and have tried a lot of different things as my feet are only good for 10-15 miles barefoot, plus I often run in some very difficult...
I use the Kilkenny XC flats too! They are awesome. I have often recommended them on this list, along with the Reebok Circa XC flat (but I can't find those...
It is nice to have a bunch of barefoot experts to help me with my newbie questions. Thanks a lot guys. I'll check out those Sauconys for my longer runs. ... ...
Do you suppose you may get a chance to kind of interviw her for information you can post here? Ask her, for example, what induced here to start using shoes,...
thanks billy. me too. I especially wonder why Zola still runs cross country sans shoes where many of us have trouble and shod on the roads where many of us...
... Being a cynic, I predict that the answer will be money from a shoe company. If the company thinks that she's important enough, they may even hand-build...
I am pretty comfortable barefoot running, had my second barefoot race here in Chicago today, kinda chilly but entirely worth it. I find I am running an...
Conversely, I don't bend at the ankle. To do so causes possible slippage on the balls of the feet, or shredding as in your case. I do something which I call...
This happens to me also, if i increase my speed i get more wear on my middle three toes and a little behind them. I'm going to concentrate on my form more...
Hi. I'm not sure what the official prognosis was, but I injured a bone in both feet training for my first Marathon (shod). I was up to 20 miles, but after...
I like the adiZero from Adidas. They are very thin, very light, etc. I put over 500 miles on the pair that I have and there seems to be plenty of miles left in...
... Have you searched youtube for "pose running" ? What has helped me is: • increase speed and distance very slowly and consistently • lift the knee •...
Gee, I didn't know she still did any barefoot running. And I wouldn't be surprised if she has a judgement about surfaces similar to Frazine, who is scared of...
thanks barefoot billy. The original article (that I missed keeping alive in subsequent posts - sorry) does seem to indicate the past tense too about her...
I won the UC Irvine Halloween 5k Fun Run today. It rained during the race and there were only 17 people in it, but I had to battle for it so a win is a win. I...
Congratulations on your BF win. Hmmm ... 17 people in the race and 2 of you ran barefoot. This may be the highest percentage of barefoot runners in an...
Thanks. Yeah it was a close race. The course was three laps around the UCI campus and it included one hill and downhill. There was a guy from Long Beach State,...
Dude!!! BFT -- One foot at a time. One sole at a time. One hell of a good time. Barefoot Ted's Adventures at Weathertop Farms 10577 Pine Hill Drive Shadow...
I'm hesitant to post a question about shoe wearing here, but no one else I have asked so far seems to know the answer. I run about 20-25 miles per week...
I have found that because of the incrased circulation my feet get v hot in my vivos for work, and even when outside in boots. When in the vibrams they are ok,...
