    Random Thought #4

    If Superman ever put glasses on Lois Lane's dog would she say, "I've never seen this dog before. Is this a new dog?"

    Utah Made Its Feet Known

    Maybe it was a solo effort, but the event was no less meaningful to the participant. I journaled about it with my tongue firmly in my cheek here: https://www.thebarefootrunners.org/entries/my-first-ibrd-experience.1221/

    My First IBRD Experience

    I was excited to be part of my first IBRD event. No matter how independent one may feel, the truth remains that we are built for relationships. Being together with like minded folks is always a plus. As much as I enjoy communicating on our community forums, I looked forward to conversations...

    What minimalist shoes do you recommend for someone starting out?

    As to your second question: Start with the book Barefoot Running Step By Step by @Barefoot Ken Bob. He is considered by most to be the pioneer of modern barefoot running. His book is clear, and enjoyable. It covers every aspect of running barefoot, including footwear. If you feel the need for a...

    Heel or toe? Running science backs off minimalist shoe

    I may be guilty of this in my Blog. I now have to ask if I was trying to make point that or not. I wanted to assert that shoes, even minimalist shoes are not the answer, at least not the only answer. You are right, of course. Even if you don't think minimalist shoes are the right path...

    Heel or toe? Running science backs off minimalist shoe

    I am sad to hear about this. I believe in the value of barefoot running.When things aren't working for one of us, I worry. It's clear that @Einar took some bad advice from somewhere. Namely that toe shoes equaled barefoot running. I think the lesson here for all of us is to approach our message...

    Need guidance/form help!

    Pleg, This was posted on another thread. It's @Barefoot Ken Bob on a treadmill showing impact forces. If you wanted the example of form this would be it. Yours is nearly identical. The only real difference I see is that your pull from the ground lags behind the landing. I don't know if that is...

    Heel or toe? Running science backs off minimalist shoe

    Hmmm.....This is an interesting item. I just with toes were exposed. Maybe a pair of scissors will solve that.

    Heel or toe? Running science backs off minimalist shoe

    Maybe I should give others a chance to reply before I release the Krakken in my head..... Nope, can't do it. My thoughts became a blog entry. https://www.thebarefootrunners.org/entries/i-dont-think-youre-going-to-like-this.1219/

    I Don't Think You're Going to Like This

    A post by our fearless leader, TJ , got my head churning (see post here). Many thoughts and ideas have been floating around lately and this article seems to have created the catalyst to turn them into viewpoints. I think these viewpoints will not be all that popular in this community. I have...
