    Finally went into a store barefoot!

    went into McDonalds barefoot yesterday. An older guy, who came in at the same time I did, asked me what happened to my shoes. I told him I try not to wear shoes very much. His response made me laugh. He said its not as safe to go barefoot as it used to be with all the germs we have these days. I...

    Broken Toe? (Gross picture warning)

    so, I showed this picture around the lab and the hospital (where I work). The consensus here is INFECTION! Go have a Dr. look at it soon! there are some nasty bugs out there, that can take hold very fast, Staphs, especially MRSA, are BAD!!! you could lose that toe or worse. Just saying...

    He's done it! Eddie Vega has run more barefoot marathons in one year than anyone else!

    Hmmmm, Not to take away from his accomplishment, I'm completely impressed, but, am I missing something? He's running barefoot to raise money to buy shoes for kids who don't have them... Aren't they better off not wearing shoes? Don't we read and write an abundance of forums and blogs extolling...

    OUCH! just seeing the picture of them makes me cringe!... Its like a punishment of some sort, but we don't know why! Yeah, they HURT! They itch after you pull them out too. They can go thru some types of min shoes, and they will cause flats on bicycle tires! They're hard to avoid because they...

    Downhills

    Interesting concept, I may have to start pushing the downhills more. I know that courses with a greater decent angle are hard on the quads.

    Yesterday morning, while out on a loop that I frequent, I passed an older guy (looks to be around 70ish, so I was completely impressed) in merrell mins. He looks at me and says "So you belong to the barefoot prints I see out here!" Funny, because I was about to say the same about his merrell prints.

    Good, bad or neither? Racing without number or registration.

    I would challenge skedaddle to organize that race. no large manufacturers, no big time big money sponsors, no fees, That would be a race! keep us posted... and, "servitude?" really? I think its called earning your keep.

    Good, bad or neither? Racing without number or registration.

    Personally, I dont think its right. I have run/ridden races, I've paid the fees, and taken home many shirts that I dont wear because they're ugly. I'm not fast enough anymore, to win any of the prizes, and several of the races are on the roads and trails I regularly run or ride. but I still...
