Showing my BRS colors at this weekends half marathon 10/16/10
- Thread starter Barefoot Larry
- Start date
Finished my Neuse RIver
Finished my Neuse RIver Bridge Half Marathon in 1:45:00, the magical BRS tech shirt helped. Temperature was 65, perfect weather conditions. I was 45th overall. I'm 47 and still getting my but kicked by people in my age group. Actually the BRS community helped me finish, because all the shared tips help.
Typical comments when I passed people were "Look, he's running barefoot...Oh he's with the Barefoot Runners Society. Someone wondered if the Barefoot Runners Society was some kind of secret club LOL, because they have never seen a barefoot runner LOL. I had a lot of people that came up to me afterwards and said that they were going to start running barefoot. It is so convenient to point to the address on the BRS tech shirt, and tell people to visit the site.
The half marathon started before the 5k and 10k. We caught up and passed the 5 k power walkers. Is it just me, but why do the 5K power walkers giggle when I pass them, but runners are cool about the barefoot running? How about at the start, out of the corner of my eye I can see runner nudging their friend and pointing at my feet.
I have come to the conclusion that running barefoot is hilarious. I guess I should wear shoes, so I can experience what it feels like when I see a barefoot runner
LOL

Abide--There's a stickied thread on the Gear forum with photos of me in my racing singlet (which is just a tank top.)
Also, when everyone gets their gear, take a pic and add it to that thread! It's the "BRS Next Top Model" thread. I think it would be great to see what the shirts really look like!
Although Ram, I'll go on the record as still being PRO-PANTS.
And Larry, congrats on your race!! Great time!!

thanks Beth for chiming in, yep...we carry singlets. Like Beth said, basically a tank, or a sleeveless tech shirt.
Ram, seriously cracked up at your missing thong :O
Larry!! Way to go! I know you've been pushing for that time for some time now, way to go!! Congratulations on the time and good foot feel run! Thanks for continuing to spread the word )

LOL, now that something we don't carry. Now how does that differ from a leotard??
I agree, not sure why they dont just call it a tank or sleeveless shirt.

The singlet has longer legs.
The singlet has longer legs. Leotards only started to get such varied cuts in the top or legs in the 70's-80's, wrestlers pretty much just had different cuts to the tops, but always had singlets with legs, never bikini like .
Mr. Leotard himself wore tights in conjunction with his invention, which he called a Maillot.
He died long before the garment was named after him.
My body aches today from racing and walking around for hours after, but my head feels fine.
I only had stored info in my head for the first post, to answer Zum's question I simply checked Wiki.
Now my fingertips and eyes hurt.
How cool is THIS fact?
Mr. Leotard, a French circus performer, was the guy they were singing about in "The Man On the Flying Trapeze"!
I think I'll wear one in the next race.
