Surely it's patently evident that it is more economical to run barefoot than to spend $150+ on training shoes. Even moreso when you attach $300 orthoses to control for the shod runners' wobbly gaits...
The author assumes we choose to run barefoot so that we can have quicker race times. Running faster has become less important to me and instead, running has become much more enjoyable.

As scedastic pointed out, garbage in, garbage out.With the vast differences in people, how could this be an accurate study? Age, weight, training, genetics, body fat %, length of time running barefoot etc.
I definitely like that!I feel a little guilty when I keep winning my age group and being in the top ten percent of the women racers at my age because I know that as a barefoot or minshod runner I'm having more fun and using less energy! It's just not fair they have to compete with me.

Someone should point this jackass towards Patrick.I've never seen a guy with a sister named Bill win a race, either.
And this guy doesn't know Patrick Sweeney
Lots of people saw a barefooted Abebe Bikila win the 1960 Olympic Marathon.
