    Big toe pain

    I have had some very minor pain on the top of the distal end of my 1st metatarsal for over a year now. I believe it started when I tried to kick a ball for the dog and shot low, catching my toe on the lawn. After I looked around to see if anyone saw, I checked the damage. My toe hurt to bend...

    First time kicked out today

    Today I was asked to leave my local farm's country store. The reason I was given is "because we sell ice cream and health codes and stuff". I assured them there were no health codes involving barefootedness(is that a word?), but if that was their policy I would leave. I got a blank stare and a...

    9/11, what were you doing?

    Hypothetical situation

    So I know this stupid guy (ok, it's me), that ran a 5k on Thursday. It was a small Air Force sponsored event at work celebrating Flag Day. I planned to run easy since it was hot and I haven't had many hot road runs, but when the race started I got excited and all plans were out the window. My...

    Thigh splints

    Hi everybody, I think I have thigh splints, or adductor insertion avulsion syndrome. It just started on Tuesday when I tried to run I had pretty significant pain on the inside middle part of my thigh. I had been busy running (literally sometimes) around the house getting stuff done with no pain...

    Mass Dash Relay

    Hi everyone, I'm looking for some advice. This is my third year captaining a team for the Mass Dash Relay, first year running it barefoot. I was hoping some of you that are more experienced than I could tell me what to expect. I'll be running about 25-30 miles over 5-6 legs, which is about my...
