    #WoYoPracMo day 24. I started out with the McD's yoga DVD (I actually wrote the sequences down so I didn't have to use the DVD) and got through half the poses. Then I just did my own thing.

    I must be pushing off weird when I #barefoot. Blood blister, bruise or just chafing? Any thoughts? David R. Rob S. Christian P.

      Probably focusing too much on forefoot running. Don't be afraid of letting your heel touch the ground some. You have to use the whole foot when you land.

      Hi Emily. The guys above give some great advice. Your cadence should be anywhere between 160 and 200 strides a minute, with the foot landing under your hips. One question; how tight is your right calf? It looks as though you may have excessive pronation due to poor/slow stabilization - if so you should stretch/ strengthen that area. Are you a subscriber to our free online barefoot running magazine? It has a great article on rolling out muscles in the latest issue.

      My right calf isn't sore/doesn't feel tight. I do have blood blisters on both feet in the same spot. the one on my right just happens to have been bigger and I don't have one on my big toe on my left foot. :/ David: It looks like I do subscribe and the winter 2011 issue is still in my inbox. So to sum it all up: shorter stride, quicker cadence, land mid-foot strike under the hip...

      Again, Thank you ALL!
