I just finished reading Jason Robillard's The Barefoot Running Book and found this site. Currently running in New Balance Minimus, I've been gravitating toward minimal running for several years. In spite of my whole-hearted belief in barefoot running, I don't know if I'll ever be able to make the final leap from the Minimus to bare foot. My (intellectual) excuses are that I run early (in the dark) and part of my route is along an arroyo (drainage ditch) that has lots of "goat heads" (nasty stickers) and dog poo. I'm almost embarrassed to say I worked in my bare feet a couple of times this week for the first time. Let's just say that it was an interesting experience.
I'm looking forward to talking to other like-minded folks. I'm the only one I know that is even close to this.
