Hello from the UK
Great to have found this site, I'm Vicky and have recently decided to ditch the trainers (and shoes) after injury after injury after injury and thought i'd give Vibrams a go as i read good things about how they can reduce running injuries etc - LOVE THEM so much so I don't even wear "normal" shoes anymore. I have a pair for running (soon to be 2 pairs, maybe 3) and a pretty pair for going out and about... I was getting funny looks walking around the supermarket with dirty frog feet and skinny jeans My aim to be able run naked *barefoot* but my feet haven't maned up enough yet, so I run in Vibrams V-run unless i'm on the treadmill (not very often - hate the things) or doing weighs or yoga then its all barefoot.
I'm an avid runner, and have ran for many years - all distances and terrains but i'm most happy running up muddy, rocky hills.
