Hi there
2013 is a great year for me, I read Born to Run, ran a barefoot half-marathon and realised how the "popular wisdom" can be wrong sometimes. You know as much as I do that when you run barefoot, people tell you you are wrong and want you to wear shoes again, kind of heavy social pressure. You also agree, for most of you, that shoes created a lot of problems for runners.
This made me think a lot in the last few months.
Today I was wondering about sunglasses. I never had sunglasses, dunno why, but its a fact, and too many times had know-it-all friends telling me I was killing my eyes and really should buy some. (I should mention that I dont live on Mt. Everest but in Portugal, where there is no snow at all). I never thought about this before today, so I dont have any idea about the subject. But would it be possible that sunglasses are as good for the eyes than shoes for the feet ?
It's just a question, not an affirmation, maybe some of you already thought about it ?
In only 2 minutes, google showed me that :
