The key point I take from this is that running on an irregular surface is more likely to reduce your risk of injury. This corresponds very well with my barefoot running experience. The more I mix up the surface I run on the better my feet and legs feel.

Can I please move this to Studies & Articles about Studies? I think it kinda fits there. Don't you? If not, we can leave it here. No problem.http://thebarefootrunners.org/forums/studies-articles-about-studies.112/

Sure TJ ... move it to the Studies forum.
