Which Vibram Five Fingers do you have and how are they working out?

Just want to get a feel for what everyone in the group has experienced and which Vibrams they have the pleasure of wearing.

    Sprints. Got them in December and they are awesome. It is I who am not awesome.

    I up'd my mileage in them too fast because they felt so good (from 1 mile to 6 miles in like 3 weeks as opposed to say 3 months). Taking a little break to rest the ankle and then jumping back in but slower this time. Plan to use some neutral running shoes in between to get miles.

    LOVE them tho!

    Got my KSOs this week. Did an quick 1.5 mile in them because I heard about all the problems with people going to far to fast. But they felt so good I went for a 3 mile in them today. I promised myself I wont run more than 3 for the next few weeks though. I'm really liking them so far!

    I've bought a pair of sprints and have tried them three times on grass, dirt and asphalt. They are comfortable to wear. I only run 1 km at a time (0,6 miles) after a warm-up with regular shoes. My ancles hurt a bit so I'm taking it slowly.

    I currently have the TrekSports and love them! They work great even for trail runs. I am planning to try out the new BikilaLS with the laces the next time I'm due for new ones though...would love to hear if anyone else has tried them yet and your impressions.

    I picked up the new Bikila LS and they are awesome. Starting slow but I can already tell they are going to be great. Like the fabric and feel better than the regular Bikilas.
