I had the privilege of running at Fort McPherson with the recently-moved-away Colonel Rex Hall today. He had returned for the day in the course of his travels, and I bumped into him as he was headed toward the gym with another mutual friend of ours. He ran barefoot, and I ran in VFFs the first two miles, then ditched them for the last mile barefoot. I'm just not safely up to 3 miles bare yet.
This was my first run with another barefoot runner, and he gave me some great feedback on form and some other technique issues I've been verbally sparring at with many of my fellow BFRers here on the site. THe advice has been great, but having a live person for personalized, experienced feedback is fantastic!
That's all, folks. Just wanted to share a great experience.
