Barefoot running on CBC's The National.

Our national evening news ran a piece on barefoot/Vibram Five Fingers tonight. Thought some might be interested...

(I don't know if those outside Canada can watch the video.)

  • It is viewable in other countries.

    As a comment to that video, this is what I hate about the CBC. Time and time again they go to people with next to no credibility and prop them up as experts to get sound bites. Someone who runs a Running Room? Is that really the best they can do for a counter argument? Asking her what her feelings are?

    And of course the scientific evidence barely gets any air time. I know there have been budget cuts and layoffs, but you figure they could spring for an interview with a professor of sports medicine or something.

    Thanks for the video! :)
