I run on outdoor rubber track, which, at the end of each run my sole would become red color, from the rubber track. I also don't remember landing on heel,...
Hi there, I live in Northern Colorado, but I'm originally from the Portland OR area. We'll be heading back for a few weeks early this summer, and I was hoping...
OK, next race I am doing that. Why not? I am infamous in the foothills of Vermont for being a bit off. :) ... -- ... Facebook: facebook.com/rich.walkden ...
If you are famous in VT for being off then you mut be pretty wacko, because IME folks from VT are a bit off to begin with! Then again, VT is where I want to...
I hear you. I'm really not any more whacked then the next guy, it's just that something about running without shoes freaks many folks out up here. Yet, as they...

Storms rolled into middle Tennessee Saturday morning. Despite the tornado watch I threw caution to the wind and went out for a 2 hour run. What a joy it was to...
Let's see ... there's Zeke, Bruce (Portland) & Ryan, Shelley, David (Vancouver) and maybe some others my brain is spacing on. Ryan PS I got up and ran a fast...
Hi Barefoot KenBob, I know I should rest...but can I say that I am not good at that? I had some errands that had to be done; dog food to buy and stuff like...
Hi all,  Had a fun run today.  It was a fund raiser for the High School track team so lots and lots of teenagers. Early in the race I got stuck behind...
A year ago I reported about my fourth half-marathon without shoes... http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/RunningBarefoot/message/25931 This morning I...
Awesome! My folks live in Vancouver and my husband's live in Beaverton, so we'll be on both sides at various times. I'll email as we get closer to see if we...
So, I've worked up to running 3 miles barefoot over the last month, and yesterday I ran a 4-miler. Afterwards, I experienced some pain and inflammation along...
Sounds like you are just pushing a bit too hard. Back off for a few days. I think the hardest part of learning to BFR is controlling the enthusiasm. Allow...
I was experiencing some ankle and knee pain on my run yesterday... so i staightened up my posture, and stretched my spine as i ran... and as expected, they...
I just ran my 2nd race barefoot. A 5 mile run in Rye, NY sponsored by the YMCA. My feet feel great with no hot spots. A woman, who was running in shoes, said...
Saturday morning I decided to go do a 5K for the Humane Society because I love dogs and I knew I would get to see a lot of them there. The start time was 8:45...
They were going to have some kind of ceremonies at 10:30, but I didn't want to wait around for them. There wasn't anybody timing the runners, nobody at the...

I competed in my second BF race last Saturday (May Day). This time it was an 8k around the Capital Lakes in Olympia, starting and finishing on the Capital...
thanks for the great race report on a great run. I'm with you on the Capital Lake part of the course. It's where the Capital City Marathon used to go from the...
Try NOT focusing on foot-landing (and definitely not "striking". Instead, continue focusing on bent knees, relaxed ankles, and LIFTING the foot, even so far as...
I'm in Huntington Beach, Ca. But, soon will be leaving for our road trip... http://barefootkenbob.com/?page_id=1398 We recently (March) held a Running Barefoot...
While I've yet to do any racing barefoot, I've begun to fantasize about it. For chip-timed races, I was thinking that I'd wear the chip on my wrist and do a...
... Way to go, Ryan! Running as altruistic pursuit. For me it's still purely selfish (though my kids benefit from having a less stressed-out Dad). That...
Good job! Glad you shared your experience with us. I'd like to come run with you some time. Perhaps there will be another run in Olympia I can come up and do. ...
I guess we could step through the finish line proper, and THEN do a flying victory kick! But first, I think I need to learn how to even do a flying kick. I'm...
