So, after Tuesday's toe-swelling/frostbite-like mishap (or whatever it was). I decided that now is the time that I have to switch to the "minimalist" side of the barefoot/minimalist runner. For some reason, I don't recall last winter being quite so cold. I started this barefoot journey last...
So, yeah... tonight was about the coldest barefoot run I've ever done (35 degrees). I think my toes are still down there, though I couldn't really feel them after the first mile. I don't know how you barefoot snow runners do it. On a positive note - my first mile was 8 min with a 8:15/mi pace...
So, awhile back I started toying with some barefootT-shirt designs and sayings. I've finally posted one of the designs on my Zazzle page. If you like what you see, I hope you puchase a shirt! New designs in production to be added soon. Feedback is appreciated!

Barefoot runner runs the Chicago Marathon in about 3 hours. Enjoy!
So, I went out for a quick 3 mile run this evening. Ihad reached about the half mile mark. I was approaching a corner at the end of a dead-end street. I heard and saw the lights of a car coming from around the corner. Ihopped up onto the curb to avoid being smashed by a car blindly turning...
I'm back!
I took a hiatus for 6 weeks from running after my 5K barefoot race due to TOFP and worries of a possible stress fracture in my left foot (5th metatarsal area).
On Sunday, I met up with fellow BRS member, barefootjohn, for a BF run in SanFrancisco's Golden Gate Park. We were hoping...
Sunday, May 16, 2010 at 7:15 a.m. I officially started my first barefoot race - Avenue of the Vines in Lodi, California.
First of all, to those of you who are just finding my blog. I began running barefoot this past January after reading Born to Run. My goal was to run the Avenue of the...
I'm a week away from running my first barefoot half marathon.
GOODNEWS... Ihad been struggling in training with being sick and TOFP. Itook a hiatus for 2 weeks for TOFP leaving me 2 1/2 weeks to prepare for my half marathon. Iwent out this morning in my VFFs to attempt a 10 mile run to see if...
Hello all!
Last Thursday I ran an easy 4 miler. It was supposed to be 5 miles. However, I started to feel a little bit of that TOFP creeping back, so I cut my run a little short. When I got home and showered, the realization that I was having a relapse of the dreaded TOFP set in. Fortunately...
So, I opened my local newspaper today at lunch and saw this article. . .
http://www.recordnet.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20100409/A_NEWS/4090320/-1/A_NEWS and my poor co-workers got to hear an earful from me about barefoot running.
Granted, this article is not referring to barefoot...
In training for my first barefoot half marathon, I ran 5 miles last week (longest distance to date barefoot). Unfortunately I got my first blisters after 3 months and 40 miles of barefooting. I gave my feet about a week to recover - I didn't want to drain the blisters lest Iget an infection on...
