  1. First snow run of the year

    Luckily we got snow already month ago, yesterday was -11/12F ad windchill -16/3F, my bare toes in FF-s can take it fine, my main and only problem is my fingers or my private parts if I dont use underwear below windy -10 (still happens, im used to wear only one layer regardless of weather). I...
  2. Finally went into a store barefoot!

    wow, ok, I'll be prepared then next time I travel to somewhere more south.
  3. Finally went into a store barefoot!

    It doesn't fit to my head that some shop wont allow me to be barefoot, and yes, as long as its not super expensive fancy fashion shop then its unthinkable here that someone dares to stop you, winky smile or funny comment is max you will get. It's probably something that only happens in America.
  4. Finally went into a store barefoot!

    Heh, I read this and wondered why I have not done it, now I finish my second vacation week and also my second full bf week :) Sometimes we all need someone to give a good exampl. And several times I didn't first understand, why others are watching me ..yeah, I'm handsome but still.
  5. Greetings from Estonia

    Ha, I did it in 2005 also, in Illinois :) Books, I mean. And yes, I still like running, local sports-talker, who almost single-handedly leads all bigger running events, usually introduces me if finds me in starting list "look out nr ..., he is probably running bf or ff ... and gives similar...
  6. Foot shape

    2010 spring, just as I got my first FF-s and now I have always been wearing too narrow shoes (and I still do), so my tiny toes won't be straight anymore.
  7. Noisy shod runners

    we call it "professional criticism" Runners with cramped arms, runners with over the heel style, runners who wear full bodysuit in summer, including the hat, runners who think that their style is "relaxing" but is hilarious in spite of that, parents that deny their children to be bf because...
  8. running downhill!

    If on flat or uphill you can beat your sneakers pace then am I right that what ever you do, the best you can achieve when running downhill bf is as good as wearing sneakers? I have been good downhiller, or maybe others are very bad downhillers (Estonia is flat land), anyway I have been much...
  9. Greetings from Estonia

    I don't have problems any more, I couldn't run 3 month after NY maraton attempt but pain didnt come back next spring nor after. Probably overtraining, too much too fast, but I did my HM 1:24 (pb) that summer also , that was awesome, haven't done under 1:27 since. Chiropractic cured my right leg...
  10. Water?

    I'm not used to drink, anything, any time, just some milk as dinner side but I've trained myself to drink. If its sunny and over 30c/85f then its hard to withstand 2h runs but anything below or less is not bothering me. Its not often over 30c sunny here, so prob 2-3 times I've needed water, then...
  11. How did you find the BRS?

  12. Greetings from Estonia

    I'm probably the only bf runner in Estonia, at least the only one who is racing. So heres my story. I was pure cyclist, mostly MTB till 2009, my first run race was 2007 (23k) but real transition year was 2010, after that I’ve been pure runner. In January 2010 I got my first pairs of FF...
