    Run Club

    I'm in a running club for LifeTime Fitness in Clive, and I heard the road that's being worked on is almost done. If that's the case, then I'll not be running up a hill every week. Very relieving for me.

  2. Looking for information on Barefoot Runner Rae Heim

    I've had this account a few years now and have been lurking on and off. So many of your stories and experiences are so inspiring. One Thing I want to try doing is archiving well known and popular barefoot runners and enthusiasts, and their journeys. I figure she's a good a place to start as...

    Capital City Pride 5K

    I just did the Capital City Pride 5K Stride today. Walked it mostly but got to about 56 minutes and was 3.08 miles. All barefoot.

    Dam to DSM

    So I didn't register for the Dam to DSM race in Des Moines Iowa, but my friend Morgan, who's getting more and more into barefoot walking thanks to my Barefoot Autism Challenge, saw some people running that race barefoot. They were male though but maybe if they share some pictures I can find...

    Grand Blue Mile

    Yesterday I ran the Grand Blue Mile with some of my friends and I did it in my V-Alpha FiveFingers. Did pretty good all things considered. 10 minutes 41 seconds for a whole mile

    Running with a blood blister

    What do you do if you have a blood blister and you still want to run? I had a particular blood blister almost a week ago after a run and I'm waiting on it to get better. What do you recommend?

    First barefoot run of 2022

    I found out that an Urbandale gym called Life Time Fitness has a run club and I reached out to the admin on Facebook and asked if they had barefoot runners and she said I could run barefoot if I wanted to but would have to wear shoes in their gym. She said that for April she would have people do...

    Great Barefoot Running Technique video on a treadmill by a German Barefoot Runner

    Those 17 km/h of his were huge, by the way.

    Barefoot 200 meter

    I did a barefoot 200 meter a while ago for the Special Olympics virtual summer games. It felt interesting but I haven't ran athletically in a long time. I might take it slow.

    Two years barefoot running... And my first half-marathon!

    So, last November marked two years since I first started barefoot running... And it was also the occasion of completing my first half-marathon. I did complete in the ridiculous time of 2h45, but part of that misperformance was also due to the course being extremely hilly and demanding. Anyway, I...

    Barefoot Running: worth going the extra mile?

    This article appeared on my news feed. For some reason I get articles regarding barefoot activities. Go figure. It is published by a Dure, a magazine that started in 2018, but the article doesn't have a date. The article mentions among many things: That the biggest community of Barefoot...

    A Spartan Race, the Spartan way!

    I mentioned that in a previous post, on the mud run... But eventually, I managed to do a full Spartan sprint race barefoot. I had some apprehensions as the organizers did not recommend running barefoot, but ultimately, they couldn't care less. However, the terrain was not really...

    A barefoot mud run

    So finally, after hiking, running 10k's, etc, I also started mud runs. Last Sunday, I took to what might be deemed a "soft" version of a Spartan run, with very easy obstacles, not too much mud and a short trail run of 6 kms. Overall, no big difference with running/hiking barefoot, but much...

    Two 10 kms races

    Two 10 kms races By Visions of Asia I lack a bit of time to always write about my barefoot activities (I am very late for reporting on my trip to Korea on my own blog), but January saw an uptick with barefoot running. In fact, I participated in two barefoot races of 10 K each. While the first...

    First 10K barefoot race!

    First 10K barefoot race! By Visions of Asia So, I bit the bullet, and decided to register myself for a real race barefoot (yeah, obviously not trying to compete with the guys who swallowed 10 k in 1/2 hr). The idea was to measure myself in a competitive environment and with the need to pace...

    Ken Bob's Too Much Fun Tour 2018

    Formerly: The 2018 Spring-Summer Barefoot Running, Walking, Vegan, Yoga, and Stand Up Paddleboard (SUP) Tour (which is a mouth full, and the reason we're calling it simply the "Ken Bob's Too Much Fun Tour 2018") We are tentatively planning a road trip for 2018 autumn to Michigan (to visit...
