She's a Cornell runner who battled injury UNTIL she ditched her shoes. Anyone familiar with her?

Sorry, haven't heard of her. Hopefully, she'll learn about us and join.

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

Here is a blog that talks about her. It doesn't sound like her goal is to run barefoot, but is using barefoot running, along with a coach to , recover from injury, improve her running form, and to stay injury free.

Yeah Dana. I agree her goal was health, and barefooting was a means to an end.

OK, I'll take that as a ringing recommendation of BFR.
