Nomenclature and Semantics.
Michael Tru said it best when he said it dose not matter what you run in from army boots to barefoot running, its about a larger connection with spirit, body earth and running zen. or something like that. With that said much damage has occurred unintentionally by shod runners in minimal shoes running and people call it barefoot running. The thought occurred to me on an over cast rainy day sitting in my drab cubicle on the 2nd floor when my coworker snidleyremarks not going running today are you ? Its raining you know. I am encouraged by his tone, little water will feel good I remark. As I battle the mind over running matter. I think, I am a runner now its been over 3 years totally barefoot. Why is it so hard to run for me on some days. As drops fall I run in a clay single track clay trail near my work. The clay soil builds up on my feet as it often dose and feels good between my toes. I have the barefoot epiphany, as I talk to my self looking down my wife was correct my feet are turning to froto feet. Huge with mud stuck all over and I have the perfect minimal shoes. I realize that I am a minimal runner and the next time I am asked I will just avoid all the questions and say I am a minimal runner completely minimal and some times a little more.
Thoughts and runblings,
