Hi everyone,
There's nothing better to get inspired than having a goal to accomplish, so as soon as I got into BF running, I looked for races around and found this Intercampus that takes place the next 13th of March in southern Madrid, Spain. (http://portal.uc3m.es/portal/page/portal/cultura_y_deporte/deporte/intercampus/ —link in Spanish).
I intend to run it barefoot, so I'm getting ready for it. And also getting ready for weird looks and comments. The only possible constraint might me the asphalt there, so I'll carry my KSO at hand should I need tm.
In the meantime, I'll share my progress here. If anyone can provide feedback or any thoughts about how I'm doing it will be much appreciated.
This pretty much sums it up:

And a few images:
I was a bit worried about a huge blister that has almost healed, but I feared the skin there was still a bit too thin, so I tried to cover it with this adhesive plaster. It lasted for last than 300 meters . But everything was ok:
And here, the outcome, 11 km later. Not sure if you can notice it in these images, but my left foot steps neutral whereas my right one tends to overpronate:
Cheers!
