Greetings from Malaysia

[Tareef Al Satti]

Hello Everyone ....

I thought if i want to be a part of this forum i should introduce my self 1st ...

My name is tareef, I'm currentlly doing my bachelor degree in Electronics Englineering ..

I shifted to barefoot running ,since almost 2 months ago, due to shin splints and being uncomfortable while running .

Everything is going well so far, and my longest barefoot run is 11 K .



I came by with this forum by luck actually while i was googling some articles about barefoot running , am glad i found this forum, and i hope u accept me as a member of this family .



Sorry for my weak English ,,,





Tareef.

Add one more welcome to your growing pile of them, Tareef. Glad to have you here. And your English is very good. I lived in Germany and had to learn the language to a degree. I know how difficult it can be to master another language, and you're doing very well at it. Take your transition slow and easy, and enjoy!
