Hello,
I've been running in vff successfully for 3 months. I switched to them after recovering from an injury and 4 mo of no running, so it was easy to transistion slowly...slowly was all I could do. I'm still not back to my top shape (which isn't that good anyways) but moving forward. So I think my form would improve if I ran barefoot. Started walking around yesterday bf. But it's cold here, there are no sidewalks (santa cruz CA mountains - redwood forest) Also started running in place bf in the house. I'm thinking I will gradually increase bf time while still running in my vff. Whatda-y'all think?
I just joined the bfs yesterday...so good to talk to folks, read your experiences
