    Barefoot running and covid-19

    It’s good to hear from you too TJ! Obviously races could be risky for multiple reasons. But what if you run on a popular course or heavy pedestrian area (practicing social distancing of course)? It sounds like covid-19 could live on surfaces for several days according to WHO. “How long does...

    Barefoot running and covid-19

    Hi all, Im just curious if anyone is wondering besides me if it’s safe to run barefoot during this covid-19 situation. I realize our feet may encounter all sorts of bacteria, viruses, etc and we come out just fine. It’s not like we touch our faces with our feet. Still, there is the risk of a...

    Nearly Naked Caveman Crushes Boston Marathon

    Thanks for the post Barefoot TJ! It was an incredible day! The day after the marathon though I had to fly to Europe for a first-time European tour with a really busy itinerary, so the marathon and the Runner's World article is now finally starting to sink in now that I'm back home. OMG

    Any San Diego Area Barefoot Hikers?

    Hi Joe, Yeah, let's meet up for Lake Hodges. I've been street running prepping for the marathon, so my feet aren't as conditioned for the trail either. Looking forward to getting back on the trails. I love Sedona! Great place to hike :) Glen

    Any San Diego Area Barefoot Hikers?

    Hi Joe, Sorry, I just saw this post. I do some barefoot hiking. If I'm not barefoot, I'm in vibrams. Those very well may have been my footsteps around Lake Hodges. It's one of my favorite places to barefoot hike during my lunch break, lol. I hike and backpack and live down in Kensington by...

    Thanks Neil! I'll admit it is a little scary at times running in a skimpy loincloth. I have received a handful of heckler or negative remarks, but the overwhelming response has been very positive. Folks in general ate up the caveman. If 9 people smile and 1 persons frowns, hey its a great day...

    I'm not sure how I got through the marathon unscathed Ludo, given I experienced pain after only a mile the day before. It may have been a combination of a few things: foam rolling my legs to death a couple hours before the marathon, 3 tylenol taken 15 minutes before the start of the race...

    Thanks Barefoot Terry! I do believe in fate, so I'm sure the injury was all part of the master plan, lol. Thankfully it turned out to be the best race experience I've ever had :). Do I have any regrets? No. Would I repeat what I did? No. I was determined to run the Boston marathon. Mission...

    I use Runkeeper for all my runs, including races. It's so awesome! With the elite version, you can do live tracking. When I ran the Boston marathona few weeks ago, my friends and family were able to watch me at real time for the entire race. Those who were actually at the race found it really...
