Today (August 15, 2010) is my one year aniversary for starting barefoot running. It's been an amazing journey.
The RW barefoot forum was where I first found the inspiration, and it was a great place for info, instruction, encouragement, help, and fun! Many of you are here at BRS, so, thanks to all the great people who've shared it with me! I know I haven't been around as much this summer (very busy time), but I appreciate you all.
I celebrated my anniversary yesterday with a very enjoyable 12 mile run, all barefoot. It's the longest I've run barefoot, so far, and I'm still learning and building the strength and toughness to go even further, someday.
The best part of the run was that a fellow rode up to me on his bike and said he recently read Born to Run and has started doing some of his running barefoot. We plan to get together to run and talk about it, soon.
