Do those toe rings click terribly while walking on hard surfaces? I would imagine it could get annoying if they do.
I know there's lots of people who swear by calf sleeves, but me personally I hurt much more during and after a run when wearing them during a run. I no longer wear them except occasionally when I go to bed if I've had an exceptionally hard run that day. Mine are fashionably blue and match most of my running shirts though.Yes, calf sleeves. Could be a good thread topic. Those that wear them - Do they help? I would think they get too stuffy during running and probably not tight enough for recovery after. I usually wrap my calves after a hard effort with ace bandages. Or, just an accessory for looks like Pon said?
Here's my anklets. They help hold up the back strap on my sandals. So sexy, a hoka runner was playing footsie with me after the run. Show's that "yes, we can get along".
On myself though, I prefer bare ankles. I have a Road ID that I wear only if necessary.
Must be the Maff method.Speaking of moss. This is an awesome picture of Greginator's bare feet after a good barefoot run. It reminds me of moss.
Interesting TMo. Do you know if it matters which toe you put them on?They do not click when I walk. The reason I started wearing them was a friend told me if they clicked while running I was pushing off, resulting in blisters, so as long as my form is good they do not make noise.
Thanks.I put them on the ones that got blistered the worst and just left them there.
I usually run on my own property and am in no danger of cars. Or in the valley, where everyone knows me as the crazy barefoot guy so there is no need to wear an ID. I have started to put in more pavement miles in the cities training for a marathon and the other day I thought it might be a good idea for the reflective strips on the band. The other time I wear the Road ID is in races to affix a timing chip.How do you know when it is necessary. If you did know wouldn't that make you want to stay safe at home? I think I'll start using that statement when I go on group bike rides and way to damn many people ask me: "where's your helmet". I hate that!
They really slow my pace down, but I'm not breaking out the razor any time soon.Furry legs.
Same here.....I wouldn't want to dull a perfectly good razor on my leg jungleThey really slow my pace down, but I'm not breaking out the razor any time soon.
