My sandals are very sturdy, I have ran countless of miles with them, they are of a very good quality.
You and Barefoot Ric have the only true "Barefoot Shoes" I've heard of where your soles are still bare but with something on top of your foot.

yikes!forty min run in 85 deg weather sidewalks where hot, hot, hot and rough lots of chip sealed stretches. Don't know distance since it was an unknown tough/hilly route.
Yowza Dama, that does not sound fun at all. My feets would be blistered me thinks.
4 miles in my lunas doing a hilly run. I only averaged a 12:40 pace but I guess I need to give myself a break since I am pushing a stroller. I did almost get mauled by a dog that some guy had running off leash on the paved trails. The guy laughed about it and I didn't find it so funny. I went into protective mode because of my toddler son. Too many kids get mauled and killed by dogs anymore because people think their dogs would never do anything like that. I'm a huge dog lover but when your dog is growling and barking viciously and taking attack postures don't just laugh it off. Some people are idiots. The dog was protecting his master and I get that, but I don't think that owner got it. The dog was some sort of mix, looked like part boxer and something else that had longer hair. Anyhow, I actually had to stop running, throw the parking brake on the stroller, and run around in front of the stroller to get between my son and the dog because the dog was charging. After that excitement I went to the gym and did some st of shoulders, biceps, and abs.
I never know what kinds of dogs or owners I'm going to meet. Some of the worst times are when one is coming for me but there is traffic coming and I almost jump in front of it. At least on the greenbelt paths, I'm only jumping into cow pastures or thick weeds.Yowza Dama, that does not sound fun at all. My feets would be blistered me thinks.

Take out your smartphone and start recording video. Let him see how funny it is, when you report him to animal control.I'm a huge dog lover but when your dog is growling and barking viciously and taking attack postures don't just laugh it off.

Huh, should I quote you Mike in what you would tell me? Or should I just leave it alone? Hmmmmnmmm. Can't do it, wuss! ;-)was thinking about running a race with paraganek tonight on our favorite trail but opted out. too many trigger points that have made my last few runs unpleasant to even consider a race. he kept saying "come on, it's just a group run". no it isn't. there's some competitive people there and that's contagious.
Ya, I gave up on shoes per say, but I love my sandals. My sandals solve all my problems about shoes and being barefoot, if that makes sense.hey! i would tell you not to race. the wuss is for wearing shoes and such.
My dog runs off leash so I had to follow. Mr. braveheart hid in my downstairs bathtub as soon as he was let into the house when we got home.Dutchie, did he pull you along or was he off leash and you had to follow?
