You gotta admit that the reporter killed it with his ending quote, "I'm going to stick with all the padding I can get for the agony of da feet." I'll always have a soft spot for a good dad-joke like that.

From the flight academy?

T.J., it's better than that for the BRS. Print up some promotional leaflets, and have the BRS aviation department drop them over the major races. You'll have a world class "Dropmaster" at your disposal.

Well, he is "da Bomb," ain't he! You should be very proud, as I know you are. Will he drop for free or is his fee too high for us to afford?

Oh, and those would be Mattlock's feet in the cutaway to someone running on a track.

My 3 seconds of fame (and my daughter in the background)..black toenail and everything... Actually I think the "kid in the backround" was the real star...she was barefoot after all.

  Great video, good to hear

Great video, good to hear it's no longer a fad! Can't wait to people in my area pick up on it and go bare. Maybe this will be new age where going barefoot in public is no longer freakish and looked down on? I never understood why it was in the first place?

I missed the original airing but checked out the link, thanks Ram. Gald the BRS got props! It was funny though, when it came on I was getting facebook alerts like crazy from people I know. One person said, "They talked about those rope shoes you wear (hauraches)". Still hoping to go for a run and see someone else logging barefoot miles too.

Great coverage! I'm curious to see how BRS will grow after this.

We're making our place on the map of global runners. Proof's in the puddin really, barefooting is a no-brainer really Still pouting after having worn a racing flat for the first time since March on my run Friday. Does winter really have to come?
