I'm a runner from Texas and have been running in my Vffs for little over a year now and just finished my first marathon using VFFs the Houston Marathon was my 6th and I got a PR and shook hands with President Bush in the middle of it. I'm thinking of getting new vibrams as I've gone 800+ on these and just want a shiney new pair. Currently running in Bikilas but am debating on either the bikilas LS or the Speeds which would you all get?



I took video footage of the whole thing as well with my GoPro camera you can check out the footage here:
