Join The Barefoot Running/Shoe Revolution

[Orlando Rosæ]

I have started running barefoot on my treadmill. I up to almost 2 miles before my soft feet start to blister but I can already feel a difference when running with shoes.
Thanks for the post, I am ordering my kso when I get paid the first.

I did the same thing here at the little gym in my apartment complex. It's easier to get feedback at the gym because, in addition to the feel of the foot landing, I can view my form and posture in the mirror and can listen to the change in sound of the treadmill as I land on my feet differently. I barely got up to 1 mile barefoot. I need a lot of work.

Hmmmmm...interesting stuff. Has anyone tried them in the water or do they make a version for that kind of thing? I like to do a lot of fishing and kayaking and traversing uneven, slippery riverbeds can get a little tricky. Seems like something that could be really helpful.

I'm the one guy in class that doesn't wear these lol. I'm still rocking my Bruce "game of death" shoes.

Cheers Ian. Went to the Sports Chalet in La Canada (I didnt realize that is now a flagship Sports Chalet), and they had like 5 or 6 different styles to try out. I got just the KSO's. Everything else was either too weird, too water-y or too rugged.

And they had a five-fingers measuring device there so it was pretty simple. Steve - you can just cruise up the 2 and get there in like 20 minutes.

make sure you throw your vibrams in the washing machine and hang dry them at least once a week. those bad boys can get stinky.

got my KSOs on friday and gave them my first try yesterday (made sure not to overdo it). i can tell its going to take a bit to keep form without having to think too much.

overall they felt pretty solid. stoked to go for a second run this morning
