Take part in a study on race time prediction that includes running shoe vs. barefoot

[Andrew Vickers]

Here is an article on race time predictors http://www.slate.com/articles/sport...and_misleading_help_slate_build_a_better.html that has a link to an online data entry system. Included alongside information such as age, weight and previous race times, is an evaluation of whether the runner wears normal running shoes. minimalist or runs with bare feet, vibrams or sandals. We need as many runners to complete the survey as possible to get an idea of how barefoot running impacts running performance.


I should add that the data will be analyzed by a well-known statistician.
