Hello All... New here and to BFR... but i can tell you I LOVE IT! I just started running barefoot 1 week ago... i know... not long but in that time i've not had any pain in my knees!! That's the reason i found BFR. Not only am i stoked about finding Barefoot Runners Society but there is a Chapter here in Las Vegas!!! Woot.... and soo happy they have accepted my in their group.
It's amazing how good i feel running barefoot but definitey understand how one can get caught up in that feeling and forget they (ME) are newbies!! Today i made my 8th run and pushed to 11 or 12 minutes and 1.2 miles .... ummm... i know i could have gone longer well at least in my head but my body was like WHOOOOOOAAAAAA!!! Not so fast buddy... yeppers... got my first blood blisters today as well... dang... ok a couple days off for me but i'll be back and just enjoying the run.... Thank you guys for this and i'm sooo grateful to have found like minded souls!!
Take care,
Curtis
