I tried out my first barefoot run post surgery on Monday this past week. 2.3 miles at a 12 min/mile pace. Slow but it felt great! No issues at all. I ran barefoot again on Wednesday and then again today. Today I upped it to 3.1 miles. I'm feeling the normal soreness but nothing unusual. My left foot will end up being the limiting factor now in my runs since it hasn't been repaired yet especially once I start going beyond 3.5 miles or so. All in all, I am very pleased!
First three runs post surgery
