Hello fellow barefooters,
New runner here, I have started running in September in VFF and has been transitioning to barefoot. I have completed the C25K program and have run the 5K in VFF.
Currently, as a way to perfect my form, I have been keeping my runs only to 3KM (2 miles) and have been fixing some issues with my sore calf (only the left one) and some blisters in my fingers . I am also taking at least one day of rest before doing a run.
My questions are:
- Should I increase the distance while still checking at the form?
- Have you ever had issues with one calf only? If so, any tips on how to fix it?
Thanks.
