Only 2.45 miles in my vff's today. I did hills and pretty soon my ankle pain that I was having a month or so ago started acting up so I just called it. I figure it's easier to make up a couple miles later on than to try and make up 50-60 if I hurt myself and need to take time off. Went to go to the gym and it is still locked on the wrong lock. Tried calling the mgmt company but it's a weekend and no one is there. Errrrrrrrrrrr. Somebody better fix it because I am going to be pissed if I miss Mondays workout too because of this! I hate missing my gym workouts because of other people's negligence.

7.5km today with BF Dawsy, it was only the two of us for an initial Sydney gathering, hopefully next time we'll have more....Maybe the time (6:30am on a Sunday morning) deterred people...

Anyway we had a great run on easy trails (very flat and almost no rocks), which was great as we both sort of start running on other surfaces than road/footpath.

The weather was great, it was 21 when we started, and when I checked coming back in my car at 7:30 it was already 24 !

I enjoyed being able to have a chat with a fellow barefoot runner, and exchange experience, hopefully next time there will be more of us !!

No pictures this time, sorry !

Hey Bare and Nick, you got me curious about this spread sheet, and how come you are not both on my Facebook Friends list. Damn it. Look up Bob Nicol, I am the funning looking guy with my hands in the air.

Last run for this week of reporting (I think)
10.53 miles of awesome cold weather tempo running with friends.
Not liking the shoe thing to much but if its got to be done.........

Suffered through a semi-painful 4.06 miles this afternoon. I was able to put in 33.72 miles for the week.

9.2 miles trail. Thought about skipping the run, but glad that I went. Saw two deer. Weather was good, nice and cool. Then spent the day at Animal Kingdom.

I didn't run!

For the first time in 40 days I rested - feels great!

I walked/hobbled/whatever for 1.82 miles tonight in the rain. Painful? Yes. Loved it? Yes.

 

[scedastic]

5 miles, my regular route.
It was in the mid 30s, windy. Dressed too warm after all that cold snap.

 

[Barefoot TJ]

Now how can one ever dress too warmly when the temps are in the 30s?

Don't make me have to get all jealous of your lack of need to adapt to cold in the south.

Couple of miles yesterday, and a couple today. I am running unplugged again probably will until I go barefoot again. I am not worried about pace but am working on form. Running on slippery sections and uneven sidewalks and ruts gives me feedback as to how my form is. If my feet slip just a little then I know my form is off and then I work on getting back in the groove. Feels really good and as a double check I do check my footprints to make sure it is a crisp print and not showing any sign of pushoff.

Pretty easily. I did it the other day when it was 29. I wore my winter running pants and they were way to warm. I had sweat dripping down my, well, you get the idea...

 

[The Ramzev]

I guess I'll start jumping in on these. 27.65 miles since the first, all barefoot.
Goal is 1000 miles for the year. i turn thirty-ten this year, I intend to do it in my best shape ever.

First half of 2013 scheduled for 3/17.

 

[Barefoot TJ]

Are you kidding? I start out in a tank top and finish naked. Hee. I've had people yell at me, "Are you crazy?" when they see me running in short pants and tank tops. But that's me, not the rest of you, or so I thought. I've just always been too hot when I run, no matter what time of year it is.

I sometimes run on straight up ice myself just to check my form. Course, uphill on smooth ice ain't so easy no matter what.....

Still not running - trying to let the right calve recover. That said, I did 1 hour of cross-country skiing and about 45 minutes of snowshoeing yesterday.
