FREE EVENT! Presented by Merrell Barefoot
Jason Robillard is the founder and director of Barefoot Running University. He has been a barefoot runner since 1992, and has run race distances ranging from 5k all the way up to 100 miles.
He is the co-founder of the Barefoot Runners Society, a member of the Society for Barefoot Living, and has been a certified professional educator since 1999.
Needless to say, Jason is one of the preeminent resources for barefoot running!
This event will start with an Intro to Barefoot Running (15-30 minutes) that includes drills, followed by a short run around SoHo to put the lessons into practice. Minimalist footwear will be provided by Merrell Barefoot for people that do not currently own a pair.
There will be a coat/bag check, so you can change in to your running gear in the store.
Electrolyte beverages will be available.
Raffle prizes include a free pair of minimalist footwear!
Jason will hang around until 9:30pm to answer any questions and sign his book: "The Barefoot Running Book First Edition: A Practical Guide to the Art and Science of Barefoot and Minimalist Shoe Running" which will be available for sale.
