Hi Everyone! Glad to find this site! I live close to Athens GA and the last few years gotten into barefoot running, did a 5k Barefoot and had a great time for me 26:24.. My goal is to run a half completely barefoot, I've done one in the Fila Skeltoes and felt great, Any suggestions on getting my feet tough enough for a half?

Exactly, what I was going to suggest. I like having a second me around. ;-)

Welcome, Frazer!
 
I live in Kansas City Missouri area. I began wearing VFF to deal with long periods of standing. Soon after I tried running in them. That in turn led to trying barefoot a couple years ago. Before minimalist and barefooting, I hadn't ever run more than 2 miles. I just had my first 20 miler this week. No ill after effects, so I expect to do my first bf marathon soon.
