    People's reactions when you run

    More police action from Scandinavia...or it wasn't much action but just a disappointing meeting. I was walking my mother in law's dog up in the forest above our house and I'm coming down the forest road on which i haven't even seen a car in the four years we've lived there. I didn't even think...

    OC Marathon

    That is fantastic in just one year after starting barefoot! I'm very impressed. How has your build-up been milage-wise and have you had any setbacks?

    Rock music at 180 bpm

    I have made a metal song list on our spotify where the beats are around 175-185bpm. It's not that many, around 40 minutes which I have used for the deadmill this winter when the weather has been terrible. http://open.spotify.com/user/elinsfumusik/playlist/3AzvkIpH5XmYdmduA971cr There is also a...

    People's reactions when you run

    I got one from a co-worker the other day who seems to be one of those appreciating the barefooting a bit at least...after a short run in the melting snow: He: Man, can i see the bottoms of your feet? Hmm, that doesn't look very special...how does it feel? Me: Well, good, you just have to get...

    Dr. Tim Noakes: process of science…and about the food you eat

    "Type 2 diabetes can be cured with a high-carb diet" Did you mean to write "cured with a low-carb diet" ?

    R.I.P :(

    I came across this yesterday, absolutely horrible to read. http://www.mailtribune.com/article/20160130/NEWS/160139958 Apparently he went out for a run on Thursday and was found first on Saturday. I think it was on Wednesday that I was youtubing his gravel bucket training-video for some winter...

    Calluses (on the fifth met base)

    I honestly don't know but I doubt it though. I haven't had any problems growing up. A mild case of it perhaps but I think it's more related to all the years of the usual narrow shoes and playing Ice hockey from age 7 years up to 21 years of age when the feet were still growing. Ice skates are...

    The great Haile G does The great Ethiopian run 10k barefoot...but

    look at his feet, talk about a misaligned big toe. It is almost sad that one of the greatest runners of all time has wrecked his feet from wearing running shoes for two decades. On the other hand, he still smiles (all the way to the bank) and ran a really speedy time:)...

    Calluses (on the fifth met base)

    OK, thank you guys. Did it disappear after some time Sid for you? I haven't tried filing it down but will give it a go. Today I tried to spread the weight a bit more to a flatfooted type of landing and it helps but i feel i loose a bit of spring. Adam, you are right, pretty high arches. I...

    Calluses (on the fifth met base)

    I have been wondering about this for some years and not been able to figure it out... I think I understand the science behind calluses to a certain degree, that a callous is caused by some sort of friction to protect the tissues underneath, I'm i right? I have a callus on both 5th metatarsal...

    XERO SHOES NEW Z-TREK SANDALS REVIEW

    I'm not crazy about the strap over the toes on these. Especially the 5th toe seems to be squeezed against the others and you don't get the splay like with previous models. What are your thoughts on this?
