I do like having a little protection from twigs and pebbles.

I have always thought vibrams and all the minimalist running stuff looked kind of crazy so I look forward to hearing what you think after you use them! I used to see people running barefoot on paved trails when I lived in Eugene. Now that is crazy!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11345359991046978836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-552294020826574439.post-59247100219589987072012-12-27T21:41:02.069-08:002012-12-27T21:41:02.069-08:00It is much easier to stomach shopping when a runni...It is much easier to stomach shopping when a running store is on the agenda! <br /><br />I am feeling much better, and I thank you for your concern! I am eying a full return to running after another week away. I think I will just stick to weights when I return home. Loved your recent post btw.

I read an article about that exact issue, and it amazes me that some would overlook it. I mean, on some levels I get it, the whole barefoot concept seems crazy, and the toe shoes look insane. Regardless, I gotta give nature a shot here.

We survived a long time without shock absorbing and orthotics... I figure that it is worth a shot to go in the opposite direction, especially after messing up my knee.

I will be sure to report back once I get back on the roads. I have been wearing them around, and I just love how they feel.
