  Hey I'm going to an outdoor concert tonight with a friend of mine. Thinking of going barefoot to that. Got any tips?

  2. Barefoot TJ
    None. Tips for what? Outdoor [all] concerts are best enjoyed barefoot! I'm sure you'll be fine! -TJ

  Hey TJ. I looked on the Iowa chapter and there aren't a whole lot of people on there and not a lot of girls on there. How can we recruit people?

    There have never been a lot of girls in any of our chapters...or anywhere in the "civilized" western society. I (and Angie) are rarities. It's just the nature of this beast.
    
    I think what you did by posting to Royce, the CP, will help. Let's give that a try to see what response(s) you get. If you don't hear from him soon, please let me know. You can also private message him through the site. -TJ

    Thanks TJ. I'll let you know what I hear and all of that. In the meantime I'll be posting content of my barefoot adventures and try to get to know the people around here. Please feel free to check out some of my other posts too. :barefoot:

    Locate the Chapters link above, then scroll down to the Spain Chapter, click on it, then use the Join button. That should work! -TJ

  Hi HJ,
  I have been trying to add my location to the map but for some reasons it doesn't work. Any suggestions.
  
  Thanks.
  
  Keep up with his beautiful job

    I think we have hit a limit in the number of markers that can be placed on the map. Nice to know there are so many of us out there. We are due for a major site upgrade (process to re-begin at the end of September, I am told), and our developer believes this problem should be resolved. Thanks for your patience. And welcome to the BRS! -TJ

  Had to breakup my comments into smaller chuncks? Perhaps email would have been better

12. Pjruns2
  Oh-I may have mentioned the better girl watching on that level as well) I tried to make it clear that I appreciate the HealthPlex making accommodations for me and that I made it a point to NOT complain.
  I made the videos this morning too show that I was still nice on the lower level too and that they were not trying to hide me in the basement - or are they!...

13. Pjruns2
  The files are too large to email without breaking them down into smaller parts, but I'll do that tonight and send them to you as well.
  Although I told her I would rather run on the main level (that's where most workout, lift, play basketball etc.
  
  Mar 6, 2013
14. Pjruns2
  a little more:
  As I have written, I am allowed to run barefoot on a treadmill, but only in the lower level of the health club. Anjali seemed like she wanted to get an idea of the difference in running on the main level of the place vs. the lower level. I recorded a couple of videos this morning showing both levels.
  
  Mar 6, 2013
15. Pjruns2
  TJ: talked with Anjali yesterday. It was a pleasant conversation. She asked about my sources when I first started running barefoot so I mentioned BRS and the good information I have gotten from the website/forum.

16. Pjruns2
  TJ, I replied to the WSJ reporter this morning by email. I said that I would like to talk with him. I'll let you know how it goes. I'd like my response to his questions to be open and honest and positive. I'd appreciate a prayer for that and hope I might be able to mention the help and support by reading your forum.
  Sincerely,
  Per

    Hi PJ, the reporter is a lady, and yes, please feel free to mention the BRS. We do hope and pray that all reporting will be honest and offer the most support and help for all reading. Thanks! -TJ

  How does one get the "Stomp of Approval" for their blog?

  TJ, saw your post re the running pads. You might want to try the Luna Leadvilles. I have a pair and they might just fit the bill for you. The "naked tops" have a 10mm sole that is very light and flexible. The ATS laces are very comfortable too.

    Thanks! I saw in his newsletter where he's getting ready to release a really thick version. I would be most interested in those, since my nerves are shot in my feet, which is a shame. -TJ

  TJ, I am now following you on Twitter @barefootron. The twitter #barefoot community is growing and there is a lot of twitter activity concerning barefoot running/hiking. Twitter might be a good way to get more barefooters interested in the Barefoot Runners Society. There is a twitter @BarefootRunSoc that looks to be out of date. It links to the old web page.

    Jason Robillard created that Twitter page, we think, and he and I have talked about it in the past, but he says he can't remember his login or password, then he got busy traveling with Merrell, and we let this fall to the wayside. I have just written to him again, and asked him to see if he can write to Twittter to get access to the page. Otherwise, we will ask them to kill it and start another one.

    Barefoot Ron I follow Jason on his @barefootjason twitter account and he is quite active.
    
    Also, that is so awesome that you met Zola! I always loved watching her run barefoot. I thought is was so cool.
    
    Apr 21, 2012
  5. Barefoot TJ
    Jason is one of the co-founders of the BRS and still our Activities VP. He checked deep within his old emails for me again and found the login info for our Twitter account, so we now have that resolved and updated. Thanks for getting onto me to get it fixed.
    
    Zola seemed like a very quiet, sweet person, and of course she won the 25K she ran that day. -TJ

My Posterity Footprint
I leave my footprint for you to see
the damage that shoes did to me.
My foot is no longer nice and wide
but narrow and cramped in shoes they hide.
No longer are my feet healthy and free
but diseased and sick, they bother me.
Take this as a lesson, so you may too
not be fooled into thinking shoes rule.
This is what society did to me.
I leave my footprint for the world to see. ~me
About Me...

It's okay. A lot of people on the forums don't know that I actually can't run anymore, not since 2012. I took my last run in...

Barefoot TJ, May 14, 2019

Just another trail race done barefoot (Dirt Dash 5 miler report)

That was some funny stuff there in the video. -TJ
