    My new Vibram Spyridons

    I got a "nearly new" pair on eBay about a month ago for $26 (too good a deal to pass up), and when they came, I couldn't tell that they'd ever been worn at all. I don't know how they would do on ice, but I've done a few rocky trail runs in them, up to about 8 miles, and I really like them for...

    Product Review: Lems Boulder Boot

    I just bought a pair of the "Navy Stout" Boulder Boots about 2 weeks ago. I love them so far. Very roomy and comfortable. Better for the winter than my Lems Primal 2s (although it has been in the 50s and 60s since I got them... weird for Colorado at the end of January/beginning of February...

    Altra Lone Peaks 2.0

    The Lone Peak 1.5s have been my go-to trail running shoe for the past 10 months or so. I tried the 2.0 at a running store in Denver a couple of months ago (just a few minutes on a treadmill). I think they'll be good, but I haven't bought them yet. I mainly wanted to try them to make sure...

    I Just Found Out About A New Minimalist Shoe Company... RIGHT HERE IN MY TOWN!

    At our Tuesday night running group tonight, one of the members told me about a company that recently started up here in my small Western Colorado town. She said "I thought of you when I saw them because they make minimalist shoes". Apparently they had had a booth at a downtown event that I...

    Mileage Reporting 34th Week 2014

    I've done a bunch of short barefoot runs around town over the last few weeks that I've forgotten to report, and I just got back from a fairly fast (for me) and rocky 3 mile trail run in my VFFs with one long steep climb (a little over 450 feet in a little over a mile) followed by a twisty...
