Good week keeping my run miles around 10-12 range while I build up my swim/biking time. Ran 3 of those miles on a rough track...3 was all I could do on that till my feet were stinging a bit...this is my new test run every couple weeks.

Barefoot miles = 7

Merrell Trail Gloves = 4

First week with actual barefoot mileage. Feet were a little sore, but not too bad.

Total to date for 2011: 63.6 miles.
 
19 miles last week, about

19 miles last week, about half barefoot and half in KSO's. I am trying to get used to the KSO's for the Spartan race this weekend.
 
10.5 miles on

10.5 miles on streets/sidewalks Sunday - Intermittent rain but no blisters, just super-tender soles afterward. It was new BF distance milestone for me too.

Some running club guys caught up with me and one said he noticed that I was running the yellow lines on the park pathway and assumed I was running bare from my form. They were in shoes of course but totally supportive of running bare and didn't think I was weird at all.
 
I had 20 miles for the week,

I had 20 miles for the week, two runs at 10 each, all barest of foot! This is the first time I have run that distance since I had the cryo back late last April. Still not my 17 longs, but I'll take it!

It's been tuff though, you guys. My lesson: Shoes aren't evil, but they were mean and nasty to me. ;-)
