    Saw my first Barefoot Runner.......

    I'm just glad I'm finally not the only one here doing it......Though, that hasn't done anything to stop all the crazy looks I get when I do run barefoot.

    Saw my first Barefoot Runner.......

    That feeling you get when you finally see another barefoot runner and you're wearing shoes.......:( I've been trying to run barefoot as much as possible for the last 3 years and I really enjoy it. Lately I haven't been running as much as I should to train for a marathon in Nov., so I've been...

    So...bras?

    If anyone would like to do firsthand research, I suggest going to the Bay to Breakers run in San Francisco. There are quite a few naked runners there, (male and female) and they have a wide variety of body shapes. <please notice emphasis on WIDE> :wideeyed:

    Marathon in flip-flops

    I have yet to complete a marathon. I made it 20mi on my first attempt barefoot. Up until that point the longest distance I had ever run at once was 15mi. Needless to say, training and conditioning is everything, no matter what you're wearing.

    Been a while.......

    Ok.....It's been a while, but I'm back. Time to start running barefoot again. I've been in my VFFs for every run since last November and I'm tired of it! Don't get the wrong idea though, it's not like I've been running that much. I can probably count all the times I've run on one hand. :(

    I didn't train nearly I didn't train nearly enough. Until yesterday, my longest run was only 15 miles, and that was two weeks ago. I know I dropped the ball on the training.

    Almost finished my first marathon......still happy (I think)

    Well, after running 20mi this morning in my first attempt at a marathon, I had to tap out and quit. My hip flexors weren't flexing and I had a blood blister the size of a walnut on my right foot. I keep telling myself at least I went 5 miles farther then I've ever gone before. I feel like...

    Marathon Training........Please help motivate me!

    Well, there's about 8 miles Well, there's about 8 miles of very rough asphalt on the race route that I normally run whenever I do train so that's my only real worry. The rest is all very smooth pavement and new asphalt. I probably would've done 20 this weekend had I not attempted that rough...
