    The best huarache straps I've yet found

    Are these: https://www.etsy.com/listing/205138905/1-meter-dark-brown-10mm-flat-faux-suede First time I came across these was at a craft store near my work a few years ago. I got them only because I thought they looked comfortable. The material itself is much thinner than the leather straps...

    180 cadence at any pace

    Great video! https://www.instagram.com/p/CFb24kQJkDw/?igshid=1e8zonfnt0xoh /u/Lutejones on Reddit posted this. It's exactly what I've been wanting for years now. My biggest complaint about most running form videos is it's usually a fast, accomplished runner demonstrating form at paces faster...

    Mankato Half Marathon - Oct 19, 2019

    Mankato Half Marathon - Oct 19, 2019 By trevize1138 This was the first half I'd run in about 7 years. The last time I ran it I had my trusty old Asics on, did a 2:03 and was limping for a week. After I recovered from that I tried to get back into training and ended up with shin splints thanks...

    The North Face Endurance Challenge, WI, 50 Mile

    The North Face Endurance Challenge, WI, 50 Mile By Trevize1138 I cut this one close. Cutoff time was 13 hours. My friend and I crossed the line with only 25 minutes to spare! That's all we asked for though: just to finish our first 50 miler. We've both done 50ks before and I'm here to say...

    Race Report: Afton Trail Run 50k

    Race Report: Afton Trail Run 50k By Trevize1138 My first test of my year without metrics is done and the tl;dr for this race is a 20 minute improvement over last year's time at 6:24 vs 6:44 in 2018. I also did roughly 20/31 of the miles unshod, ditching my trusty Luna Origens after the first...

    I got a reply to my sandal questions from Barefoot Ted!

    Posting here not just to brag (although I do love to brag) but because the advice here is also practical if you've ever struggled with lacing up huaraches. tl;dr: lace them up the way Manuel Luna says to and never even think of questioning his divine wisdom again.

    Specialty running stores are body-shaming people

    They're specifically doing this in regards to people's feet and gait. Yes, the vast majority of people who work at these stores are simply passionate about running and honestly wanting to help. But I keep hearing people say they got "prescribed" a certain type of shoe by these places after being...

    Mankato Marathon: Not Every Finish is Guaranteed

    Mankato Marathon: Not Every Finish is Guaranteed By Trevize1138 Yesterday was my second year doing the Mankato, MN Marathon. Just like last year I did it unshod. My primary goal was just to beat last year's time of 4:28, which was also my first completed marathon. Prior to that I'd attempted...

    $15 homemade huaraches

    Got the materials at the Big Island Rendezvous in Albert Lea, MN last weekend. $5 for each bit of thick, though black leather scrap and $5 for 9ft of leather strap. Took them for a 4.5 mile run last night and they're awesome! Not much wear showing yet at all and I'm curious how much mileage I...

    Maah Daah Hey Trail Run, Saturday, July 28th

    A year ago I DNFed the marathon distance: https://www.thebarefootrunners.org/threads/maah-daah-hey-100-my-first-marathon-trail-run-dnf.20685/ I'm back for more abuse this year! My fingers are crossed that the forecast doesn't take a drastic turn. Currently predicting a high of 77F! That'd be a...

    Race Report: Afton Trail Run 50K, July 7, 2018

    Afton Trail Run 50K By Trevize1138 We got very lucky with the weather. The starting line temperature was 62F and when I finished it had just hit 80F. A little humid but this is Minnesota in July so that's to be expected. This was to be my first attempt at 50K. I'd previously only completed...

    Afton Trail Run, Afton State Park, MN - July 7

    Who else is gonna be there? I'm doing the 50K in my Luna Roots Origen sandals. Just too much gravel to try the whole thing unshod although a lot of the trail is just nice dirt. Will be the farthest I've ever run!

    Running form: hard surfaces are not the problem

    Running form: hard surfaces are not the problem By Trevize1138 I keep hearing this fallacy repeated not just here but everywhere running on concrete or asphalt is brought up. There's an automatic assumption that hard surfaces are the source of damaging impact from running. The trouble with...

    Marathon attempt #2 Sunday: Mankato, MN Marathon

    My first attempt was this past July and I DNFed in glorious fashion: https://www.thebarefootrunners.org/threads/maah-daah-hey-100-my-first-marathon-trail-run-dnf.20685/ I really have no excuse to finish this one: * Cool, October weather * 100% paved * Better prepared * Actual experience to...

    Barefoot and ASD

    Barefoot and ASD By Trevize1138 Something I wrote up and posted to /r/aspergers Friday. Thought I'd share here, too: This is just a hypothesis I've been kicking around in my head lately. I've been using myself and my 9yo ASD daughter as examples and test cases. The connection between ASD and...

    Laid down fresh tracks Friday

    Ran 10 miles on a local MTB trail Friday morning. It's 5 miles a lap and the first was unshod. The first 1 1/2 miles are a mix of dirt, rocks and gravel which was a tiny bit harsh and forced me to slow down a little bit but the rest of the lap was almost all dirt and sand (trail is in a river...
