About a year ago, I read a book called "Born to Run" which encourages barefoot running, among other things. I have loved running for almost my whole life and it sounded fun to give it a try. I have had my share of running injuries. It seems that some part of me breaks at least once a year. In fact, at the time I read "Born to Run" I was unable to run because of a small tear in my left meniscus. So, natrually, I hoped to have some fantastic results, but that wasn't the only reason to try barefoot running. I just love running and I thought it would be fun to try it barefoot.
Over the past year I have had a fantastic time barefoot running. I have been injury free and having fun. I'm not claiming that barefoot running will keep you injury free. There could be other factors in play. But, I do know that I feel good for one reason or another and that I've had a blast feeling the earth beneath my feet.
I really don't want to write some big long post trying to convert everyone to barefoot running. I just wanted to introduce the blog a bit. So, with that, I'm done.
