    Merrell Vapor Glove 2

    No, it was definitely the vapor glove. Maybe my left foot is just super sensitive to that. Could also be the arch would have resolved with some wear. Maybe I got a pair with an anomaly? Anyway, I really like the new version.

    Merrell Vapor Glove 2

    Seems like I searched everywhere for a shoe that was most like not wearing shoes. I'm not a barefoot runner, but I like shoes more like a foot covering without support. I was disappointed to find the VFFs are very lacking with their current models. The only one I would consider is the KSO Evo. I...

    For those who have had plantar fasciitis

    Thanks Rick White and TJ. It gives me hope. Still not running, but it is healing. I roll my foot before getting out of bed and then use the heating pad. I was able to do these exercises this morning, where previously it was too painful. I just couldn't imagine having to go to regular shoes.

    Eating on the run

    I've used organic baby food in a pouch with good results (sweet potato particularly). More companies are starting to market these too. https://www.powerbar.com/Products/performance-energy-blends-pear-blackberry

    For those who have had plantar fasciitis

    I've been battling a bad case of PF for about 5 or 6 months. I'm going to physical therapy, rolling my foot and calves and using a frozen water bottle. It is better, but still healing. I think part of the problem is being a 51 year old female whose hormones are affecting my fascia, tendons and...

    Merrell "Glove" Shoes

    DNEChris is correct. I also saw the Vapor Glove 2 available at Running Warehouse. I tried the Bare Access Ultra, but had to return them as the arch is too built up for me. I'll be sticking with the Trail Gloves.

    Merrell "Glove" Shoes

    The Trail Glove 3 should be released next month. You can see them at www.runningwarehouse.com I thought I saw something about the next version of the Vapor Glove, but I could be mistaken.

    Famous Potato HM 5/17

    This race starts at 0700 and you have to catch a bus to the start as its a point to point race. I left my house about 0440. I got to the parking area about 0530 or so. Get out of my car and hear someone yelling my name. Cool, I have some running buddies to ride the bus with. Get to the race...

    Lake Lowell Half Marathon 4/13

    I decided to do the Lake Lowell HM after the race company, Final Kick Events, contacted our chapter with a discount code. Let me say from the beginning, this is not a barefoot friendly race. Most of the course is rough chip seal. But as some of you may remember, I run in Luna Sandals and am not...
