It's the question I get asked most!
I have so many reasons I could give, it's better for you than wearing shoes, it minimises the chance of injury, it's more efficient running that way, it encourages proper running form, it strengthens your feet and legs, less likely to fall over when you're old, shoes are like casts etc etc
I've read countless books on the subject and know quite a bit on the science behind it...
However, when someone asks me "Why on earth would you want to run barefoot!!??!?" All can muster is "It's great".
There's so much more I could say but I go blank...
What is your standard response to inevitable question when you get it?..
