  1. Mileage Reporting Week 40 ( Sept 30 - Oct 6)

    I'm keeping up a daily running streak while half-heartedly tapering for a mixed road/trail 10k this Sunday. I'm doing it barefoot and hoping to make up time on the road sections because I'm super slow on the trail. Goal is to not get lapped. Monday: 7.6km Tuesday: 2km Wednesday: 10.3km...

I'm going to look for some enormous mittens for this year, so I can look even more ridiculous. I sometimes wonder whether there's...

  6. Barefoot cool days

    It depends how cold, what I'm doing, and how long I'm planning to be out. Last year I did several sub-freezing runs on snow, but if I was going more than a mile from home I'd carry emergency footwear. In winter I run barefoot as much as possible, but almost always wear footwear when going...
