    the pyramid is gone, welcome the plate:

    I have to say that I like the I have to say that I like the new plate much better than the pyramid, but it's still lacking big time. I really like the spin Chef Ann Cooper puts on the pyramid. http://www.chefann.com/html/tools-links/meal-wheel/ChefAnn_MealWheel.pdf It's very visual, which I...

    Flip Flops

    I love flip flops! I don't I love flip flops! I don't really like them for running, but it's really nice to be able to kick them off, run barefoot to desired destination, then put them back on. I do this quite often if I'm going to the store. I will park all the way in the back, kick off my...

    BRS Mobile... Is it a future possibility?

    I'm not sure about you folks, but I'm constantly on my smart phone (HTC EVO) at work, the doctors office, the dentist, you name it. I have read probably 5 or 6 books with the kindle app, along with utilizing it for many other things. I really would like a user friendly BRS forum app. I am able...

    toughening the feet

    I have to agree with TJ here. I have to agree with TJ here. I went through the blisters/corn stage :(, and didn't think I was going to get through it.

    Anyone interested? VFF sprints M44

    I bought a pair of VFF sprints about 2 weeks ago and have made the decision that they are a bit too small. I've worn them only 2 times. They have been washed, but I have a feeling they won't allow me to return them so I thought I would try selling them here. I wear a size 12.5, so if you wear a...

    My first barefoot 5K!

    Oh yeah... I saw one barefoot Oh yeah... I saw one barefoot runner at the 20K finish, and I was the only one, at least that I saw during the 5K. Makes me sad that more people aren't open to this wonderful sport. :(

    My first barefoot 5K!

    I did it! I took everyones advice and dropped from the 20K, to the 5K. I carried my Merrells along with me, but never put them on. The most I have ran barefoot prior to the race was 20 min, so I wasn't sure if I would be able to do the whole thing, but my form must be getting better, because I...

    How do you wear your timing chip?

    I am running a 5k tomorrow, I am running a 5k tomorrow, and was planning on starting the race barefoot. I am only up to about 20 minutes barefoot, (although I know I could do more, but don't want to do TMTS...again! :)), therefore; I am going to carry my Merrells with me. Should I put my timing...
