Mark

Thanks for showing 40+ can still lead the pack. Nice flats.

Great to see you were able to get out and run barefoot the next day.

Fantastic !

I am so happy to read how you canrun without killing yourself every time you go out. I can do that! Low stress, low heartrate runs that emphasize efficient, graceful, and conscious running. Excellent!

As I approach my year and a half anniversary of returning to running as a BF runner, Dr. Mark's example helps keep me focusing on whyI love to do this and to strive to improve.

Thanks for a great article!

I'm a 40+er also and I find Dr. Mark's story inspiring. I LOVE his racing philosophy of '"You want to be able to run “fast” without running “hard.” That is the secret.' That's advice with power! Thank you all for passing along THE secret and thanks to Dr. Mark for being a great advocate-by-example for barefoot & minimalist running. And Congrats on the win!!!

All best,

Barefoot Clay
