Here is my narrative:
Pain on my soles is minor and temporary. Feeling good in the rest of my body is a lasting benefit.
I'm a new runner so I don't have a history of injuries from running with shoes, but after trying a few times Ican tell that I don't know how to run with shoes, Ijust do it wrong, it feels ackward, tiring, painful. It feels like I *have*to run to be healthy, like a chore. If Ihadn't tried running barefoot I would not be running at all. So it's pretty easy to rank the whole experience as something overwelmingly positive with the minor temporary discomfort of tender soles.
And the rebel in me really wanted to like barefoot running, just to do another thing differently...but shhh...I will not admit that in public.
