Is anyone (besides me) running in the Route 66 Quarter Marathon and/or 5K on Saturday, Aug. 7??
I think I'm going to end up running both races (called doing "the double") in my VFFs. That way if my calves seize up "the shod ones" can blame it on my VFFs, not on my movement to BF running.
I volunteered yesterday @ packet pickup, which happens to take place in a nice running store. I heard a couple of people in the store talking with the salespeople about foot problems they were having. Salespeople put them on the treadmill to "evaluate" their running style. I just wanted to yell "TRY BAREFOOT", but figured that standing in a running store while volunteering probably wasn't the best bully pulpit.
