How did you find us/learn of us?
I see you got to over 400,000 posts. That's wonderful. Seems like a very responsible and beneficial BB to have.
We seem to be doing well here. We started in November 2009, and are growing and growing. I guess maybe because we offer so many resources here for both barefoot and minimalist runners that FB CAN'T. And we also have FB pages for our Chapters that refer them back here. Hee. It's important that our Chapter Presidents and our members continue to use this site over FB in order to help grow the BRS. As the first founder, I am not interested in growing Facebook. I AM interested in growing the BRS. Adding content to this site will ensure the BRS's survival, along with donations and volunteers.
If the "movement" to healthier running takes off, we may too. I, along with lots of other volunteers, have been kept pretty busy here taking care of things. The movement seems to be holding steady at the moment. We went through a major, much-needed cleansing recently (new web address, new website software, new logo and color scheme, new look and feel, going more international (Globe will return soon), so we've taken a hit to our numbers since the middle of February, BUT checking on the network stats shows a steady increase and nearing where we were before mid-February, so we're looking good. Now if the movement should die out or fade away, we'll still be here, since we are such a fringe interest, and the majority of the founders never sought to grow a profitable organization anyway.
Welcome!
